Top Failure Points for Men's Ministry

Pillar 1: God's Will & Vision

  • Men’s ministry is a low priority for the church in terms of time and money invested.
  • Pastors have concerns / fears of being totally transparent with the men.

Pillar 2: The Men's Ministry

  • Most pastors think that men's ministry will take up too much time and money.
  • A safe environment is not provided for men. What is said in the room must stay in the room. Safe environments need to be enforced or have a meaningful purpose.
  • Men’s ministries that are not relationship based are often “event- based” or just rely on what the “good old boys” want to do.

Pillar 3: The Plan and the Calendar

  • Men without a plan or vision fail.  Great ministries have a one and five year plan that provide good organizational structure and detailed program planning.

Pillar 4: The Programs

  • Men are turned off by ministries that aren't challenging, entertaining, adventurous, risk-taking, and dynamic.
