Reaching and Discipling Younger Men: A Critical Opportunity for the Church | Man in the Mirror

from The Disciple Maker‘s Podcast · host Discipleship.org

Younger men have always been a challenge to reach, but today’s realities make it even more urgent. Economic pressures, mental health struggles, shifting family dynamics, and identity questions are leaving many men in their 20s and 30s searching for meaning. The good news? They are spiritually curious, hungry for truth, and increasingly turning to the church for hope. Is your church ready for that golden moment—when a young man walks through the doors seeking answers? How can you meet his need for identity, purpose, and authentic community in a way that leads him to Christ? In this session, we’ll share the latest research on the struggles and spiritual openness of young men today. Attendees will receive the State of Young Men in America report and gain practical insights on how to activate the people and resources already in their church to engage and disciple the next generation effectively.
