September Fire is the First Friday the 5th
What's a fire all about?
A fire is a gathering of normal everyday guys who realize they need friends who will be there for them in the thick and thin of life.
We learn from each man's story.
You need a place to just be you without the pressures of having to measure up.
When are the fires?
There is a fire once a month. Usually the second Friday of the month. Check the Calander page for each month's fire.

What to bring?
Bring a chair, bring a friend, and bring a food item to share. Most fires include a short video, food, and time for fellowship. Some folks bring a cigar or pipe. Guys share what is going on in their lives, their story, maybe some wins from the past or an area of life where they have fallen.
Ground Rules
Fires aren't religious
Leave your religious and professional credentials behind. God gets center stage and his Kingdom sets the agenda— not in any religious way, but on the level of the heart. In the end, there is nothing more valuable for a man than his true heart connecting more deeply with the true heart of God.
Your story matters
Fires are a space for men to share stories, struggles, dreams, and questions. A place for us to experience God together through the ancient practice of storytelling. We are all students, learning together what becoming wholehearted, mature men means. Teaching is not the point. If a man is inadvertently teaching instead of storytelling, there is permission to invite him to course-correct.
No posing
Fires are a space for authentic masculinity. The mission is to create a soul-safe, nonjudgemental space for all men to be welcomed and honored. It’s essential to lead by example—no posing, hiding, or faking it. All of us will be tempted to pose. Vulnerability, courage, strength, and love are held in the highest regard. Each man has permission to show up exactly as he is—nothing to hide and nothing to prove.
Confidentiality is essential
What is shared at a Fire stays at a Fire. Fires are a space for us to practice and play at being sons of God in authentic community. The spirit of the Fires is to learn, grow, and practice, becoming sons together. In order to foster that environment, every man’s story is safe among these men and around these flames.
