The purpose of Men’s Ministry is to bring glory to God by growing men into committed disciples of Christ through learning, serving, fellowshipping, and reaching other men for Christ – together.

The following events are planned for Men’s Ministries at Shawnee Hills Baptist Church. Please consider participating in some of these as they represent opportunities both to serve and grow.

2023-24

Men’s Equip Nights

Sunday Nights in the Fall (September 17 – November 12)

Each Sunday from 6:00-7:15pm, we gather as men for mutual encouragement. This season, we’ll explore the book, Knowing God, by J.I. Packer. Several of our men will facilitate the larger group sessions, and each weekly meeting will end with small group discussion as we learn to apply the truth to our lives. This is an excellent way to get to know other men in the church.

 

Small Group Discipleship/Accountability 

September 2023 – April 2024

These 4-5 man small groups meet with each other weekly (or bi-weekly in some cases) to study God’s Word and encourage one another as we learn to live according to what God has said. These are intensive discipleship groups, but they lead to lasting friendships. Men who are new to our small group discipleship ministry are encouraged to begin with our Step 1 series, about basic discipleship. We then progress to Step 2, which builds on that foundation. For men who have completed Steps 1 & 2, we offer a Step 3 group, which focuses on developing men for spiritual leadership.
