Our vision is to "build a loving community of men who seek to know God's will and have the courage to live it." No matter where you are on your manhood journey, the Men's Community is a place for you to learn about God's will for an authentic man... in his relationships with friends, in his marriage, with his children, at work, and in his community. We strive to create a relaxed atmosphere and a fun place for men where you can come as you are, meet other men, ask questions, share life's experiences, and figure out how to become the man God intended you to be.

"Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courge; be strong. Do everything in love." Corinthians 16:13-14

Events for Men

Men's Community
Groups meet on Monday evenings (7:00 PM) and Thursday mornings (6:00 AM) for teaching and fellowship as we try to become better men by developing the practices that Jesus taught. Men's Community meets for a Fall session and a Spring session. Beginning Fall 2007:

The Quest for Authentic Manhood
Take a captivating journey with other men of Blackhawk Church as we develop a biblical definition of manhood and create a personal manhood plan to last a life time. This is a DVD and study series developed by Robert Lewis, Pastor of Fellowship Bible Church in Little Rock, Ark.

Brotherhood Breakfasts
It's time to get off the sidelines and into the Game; it is time to become an
All-Star man. The theme this year is Game Time. Come and listen to qualified speakers unfold Biblical truths about a man's life and inspire us to the goal of transformation to be more like Christ. Eat a hearty breakfast and join in fellowship with other men.

Breakfasts are held on Saturday mornings (7:30-9:30), October through May.
