Please join us for our 3rd annual Stand Firm men's conference at Ascend Church.

We have a manhood shortage problem and it’s impacting our culture and churches.  But, how do we know what the standard is? How do we define manhood? Paul provides for us a brilliant and succinct measure in Ephesians 4:13.

We need to be men who are following the example of Christ and not succumbing to the definitions of our culture.

Please join us as men gathering together in humility, for our 3rd annual Stand Firm Conference all for the sake of Christ as we seek to stand firm in Him!
