Attend A Christian Men’s Weekend

See What People Are Saying:

What is a Christian Men's Weekend?

The Crucible Weekends are Christian men's retreats designed to help you grow in your faith and become the man God created you to be. Throughout the weekend, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Take a hard look at your life and identify areas where you need to grow.
  • Learn new ways to live out your faith in your everyday life.
  • Connect with other men who are on the same journey as you.
  • Experience the power of God's love and forgiveness.

The Crucible Weekends are not for the faint of heart. They're not your ordinary spiritual retreat. They are designed to challenge and push you beyond your comfort zone. But they are also incredibly rewarding. You will leave from a weekend with a new sense of purpose, direction, and hope.

If you are a Christian man looking for a spiritual retreat to help you grow in your faith, then the Crucible Weekends are for you. We also offer weekends for women. So whether you are a young man just starting in your faith or a seasoned veteran, join us for the perfect retreat.

Are you ready to take that journey?

The Crucible Weekend will challenge you to take a self-discovering journey. You will let go of your excuses, move beyond blaming others, and look at how you contribute to those parts of your life that are not working.

Are you willing to face those challenges?

The Crucible Weekend is an intense experience that will challenge you emotionally, spiritually, and physically. If your motivation comes from those who invited you, it will quickly fade once the weekend begins. The resolve to step into each challenge the weekend presents can only come from you deciding you want this for yourself and are ready to do whatever it takes to confront those parts of yourself that are holding you back from the life you want for yourself.

Are you ready to travel where there is no path?

Are you willing to step into the unknown? First, into various exercises and activities that are new to you, and beyond that, into the unknown places within yourself, areas you've denied existed from yourself and those around you. Are you ready to travel where there is no path, to encounter God, and to see what He has for you there?

If you’re ready to go deep, discover life-changing truths about yourself, and experience radical grace, sign up below.
