If you are thirsty for authenticity in your relationships with God and man, 

this weekend could be for you.


:

Discover the "next step" in your journey:

  • Create an opportunity for you to connect more deeply with God
  • Build community among men
  • Identify how you build walls in your life that keep you from being the man you are called to be
  • Experience God's goodness and grace
  • Create momentum in your life, moving you toward a strong and healthy family life

Break down walls:

We all build walls. Walls that are meant to protect and to defend. Walls that create boundaries or support. Walls serve an important purpose. 

There are ways, however, in which we build walls in our personal lives that are potentially destructive to God’s plan for us.

What happens when we build walls of mistrust or silence? What if we create walls to hide behind so that we won’t be known? The result: distance from our wives, children, family, friends, and God.

Oftentimes, we are not even aware that we have created barriers between us and those we love. We may not recognize how we have walled ourselves in and kept others out.

Authentic Masculinity:

We believe it takes men make men. Come and join us as we work together in encouraging one another to break down walls and experience freedom to be the men we are called to be.  Become a community of brothers.

About the Retreat and the Leaders
Mark, Steve and Gary served together on the staff of Campus Crusade for Christ in Houston as co-laborers in reaching out to high school students with the love of Jesus Christ. During those years their friendship was deepened during an annual men only weekend in Brownwood, Texas where they made the decision to be intentional about being real with one another as men. Those times together were life-giving and became the foundation for what they do now in ministry. Each has a passion to see men set free in Christ to live from the heart as God intended and work together to offer men special experiences to help them in their spiritual journey. Four Streams Ministries and Waking the Passion work together as ministries committed to the call of God to make disciples and believe that working together in unity is the best way to accomplish the mission.
