JANUARY 22 – MARCH 26, 2026

Join Tim Lundy, Charley Hoy, and Chuck Eastman as they partner together to teach BETTERMAN – NEXT GEN, a 10-week study on Thursday mornings from 6:15-7:45 a.m. beginning January 22 in Venue 2. Together they will take the original BetterMan material developed by Dr. Robert Lewis in 2018 and apply it directly to the next generation. This will be a great opportunity for fathers to bring high school sons, for college students, and for men beginning their journey in life. It will also focus on how older men can mentor and build into the next generation. 

Each week you will be equipped to:

• Articulate what it means to be a man, especially in this new world.
• Understand the challenges and opportunities manhood brings.
• Relate and connect better with your wife/girlfriend.
• Find greater purpose and success with your work.
• Spiritually connect more deeply with God … and more!
