Lead at home first

When a father finds his footing, the whole household steadies. Our fathers' counsel gives men what men's breakfasts rarely do: a small cohort, an honest question, and a practice to carry home that same week.

We build cohorts of eight that meet monthly over breakfast, learn one blessing ritual per season, and hold each other to the unglamorous work — bedtime prayers, apologizing first, putting the phone away.

  • First Saturdays, 7:30 AM — breakfast cohorts, home by nine.
  • Cohorts of eight — mixed ages, led by a grandfather and a young dad.
  • Work & rest rule — a shared rhythm for Sabbaths, screens, and presence.

What's included in the counsel

A complete Fathers' Ministry engagement, from first breakfast to family blessing night.

Home leadership

Practical teaching on spiritual headship without harshness: leading prayer, leading repentance, and leading play.

Blessing rituals

Birthday blessings, school-year commissions, and table graces your children will repeat to their own children.

Work & rest

A cohort covenant on hours, phones, and Sabbaths — accountability with humor, never shame.

How the counsel works

One quarter, four breakfasts, habits that outlast the program.

01

Listening night

We gather the dads, ask what's heavy, and shape the year around their real answers.

02

Cohort launch

Groups of eight form with trained co-leaders and a full semester of table guides.

03

Blessing workshop

Fathers practice speaking blessing over their children — first awkward, then unforgettable.

04

Family night

The quarter ends with wives and kids in the room, and fathers commissioning their households.
