There is a cultural stress that’s grating on the male population with awful outcomes. It’s stealing our hardiness by making us dependent on creature comforts. It’s stealing our relationships by giving us pseudo-connections through the Internet. It’s robbing our ability to problem solve by training us to be a victim. It’s taking away our ability to be fully present with God, our friends, and our family by continually dangling some shiny new object in front of our face.
To be clear, women still have it rougher in this world than men, but men are falling apart faster. Our life expectancy is five years less than women. We are four times more likely to commit suicide and twice as likely to have an alcohol or substance abuse incident.
There is a path to take back what society is stealing from us. And the first step is what we call MAN CAMP. It’s a weekend filled with healthy, helpful stuff every man can use. Filled with laughter and great conversations, because we need it. Stuff that helps us think like a man. Play like a man. Adventure like a man. So that future generations will have men worth following.
If you’re ready to take back what our safety-obsessed, comfort-driven, passive society has stolen from you, join us at Man Camp.
