MEN'S MINISTRY
The Men's Ministry at SWLC seeks to encourage men to grow in God's grace and become the servants God has called them to be. We look for ways to support, challenge and hold accountable those who desire to fulfill God's plan for men.
We use resources from Men's Fraternity and invite men to take the course called "Authentic Manhood". Click here to view the resources and opportunities of Men's Fraternity.
THE TRUTH PROJECT
In a recent study, the Barna Research Group revealed a stunning statistic that continues to reverberate throughout the evangelical world. Only 9 percent of professing Christians have a biblical worldview.
Because of this, today's believers live very similarly to non-believers. A personal sense of significance is rarely experienced, we spend our money and time on things that fail to satisfy and we begin to wonder what life's ultimate purpose really is. We are, in short, losing our bearings as a people and a nation.
To counter this slide within the body of Christ, we are launching one of the most ambitious and powerful projects in the history of our ministry with Focus on the Family's The Truth Project.
The Truth Project is a DVD-based small group curriculum comprised of 13 one-hour lessons taught by Dr. Del Tackett. This home study is the starting point for looking at life from a biblical perspective. Each lesson discusses in great detail the relevance and importance of living the Christian worldview in daily life.
