The desire of Men’s Ministry at Scottsdale Bible Church is to develop men who love God, love their families, love their fellow believers, and love the lost. We believe that God has called men to love the Lord first and foremost and then to lead their families out of an overflow of that love, and Men’s Ministry exists to come alongside men to help them live out this calling in their lives. Through biblical teaching, personal discipleship, and authentic community, the men of our church can grow together in our walks with the Lord, and see that carry over into our families and impact our world for the Gospel. We have many opportunities throughout the week for discipleship, Bible Study, and community!

The primary focus of discipleship is to be in a community of authentic brothers in Christ where we can be lead to becoming the men God longs for us to be. God never intended for us to go through life alone, He created us with a desire to be in community and discipleship is a great place to start the process of growing together. If you are looking to be discipled, contact Bill Cavness at men@scottsdalebible.com.
