About Man in The Mirror

Vision:
To engage every man in America with a credible offer of Christ and with resources to grow.

Mission:
Serving church leaders who are reaching men.

If you take virtually every problem in America today, at the root of it you will find the failure of a man (e.g. 93% of prisoners are male and 85% of these come from fatherless homes). Today there are approximately 98,000,000 men in America, 63,000,000 of which don't know Christ. Only 8,000,000 of these are active in discipleship. This would be the equivalent of 12 guys playing on a football team and only 1 of them knowing how to play football.

Now, no man fails on purpose – most wake up in the morning wanting to succeed.

Our desire at Man in the Mirror is to come along side pastors and men’s ministry leaders who are equipping men for success.

Special Update from David Delk

A few weeks ago we sent an email letting you know about our current financial situation. Thanks so much for your encouraging response. It’s heartening to see how many men and leaders across the world are passionate about discipling men.

This is the most strategic opportunity before us today. And it’s even more strategic as men see the economic and political turmoil of the day. So many men are desperate for the secure hope that only Christ can provide.

We received more than 200 emails of support, encouragement, and creative thinking. Our staff read each one and we prayed for all the requests which were included.

Many of the respondents shared that they too are facing a hard time financially – either personally or in their church. Others mentioned that they would be able to give an increased or special gift.

We are so thankful for this show of encouragement and support for the mission of helping leaders disciple men.

I thought I would let you know the steps we have taken to address our situation.

We made some long-term changes that, while painful, seemed necessary to prepare us for next year if the current climate continues…

  • We released one full-time employee
  • We transitioned four other full-time employees to part-time
  • We reduced or eliminated hours for four other part-time employees

We also made some short-term changes to try to reduce the end of the year deficit that we are currently facing…

  • Staff members took voluntary reductions in salary. Combined with the measures above, this saved 14.1% on our 4th quarter payroll.
  • Equipping the Man in the Mirror will be published quarterly for at least the first half of 2009.
  • We eliminated every optional expense through the end of the year – supplies, newsletter printing, optional travel, etc.

So far, we have not had to eliminate any ministry initiatives or programs.

We believe these changes will reduce our end of the year budget deficit by $126,000, and save us up to $190,000 in 2009. We would ask for your continued prayers. Depending on year-end income, we are still currently projecting a significant deficit for the end of 2008.

We are so grateful to be in the battle with you. Thanks for your support and partnership. Nothing has the power to transform the world like reaching and discipling men.
