One of the top problems in men’s discipleship ministry is the leader quit rate. A staggering number of well-intentioned, capable leaders have started men’s ministries, but been unable to sustain them. Why is that, and what can we do about it?
To address this problem, I’ve been studying scholarly literature on how to implement and sustain effective programs. Many of the leaders we work with say they have wasted 5, 10, or more years on programs that didn’t produce the fruit they expected. Unless we take a research-based approach to men’s discipleship, we may bet the next 5 or 10 years of our ministry on a hunch. That doesn’t sound very smart.
