Over the years the Lord has shown us that Christian men are starving for a real and transparent relationship with the Father and with other men. As men come to know the freedom Christ has given them, the natural by-product will be deeper and more intimate relationships with others.

Through relationships with other Christian men, eyes and ears are opened to seeing and hearing the spiritual and dependent relationship Jesus had with His Father. These one-on-one and small group relationships also reveal that God is primarily concerned with the motives of men's hearts more than their performance to please Him.

Men need to recognize that they need more than a change in behavior; they need Jesus as a personal, moment-by-moment source for life and godliness. Men's spiritual lives change as they focus on "the Life" they can have in Christ vs. focusing on their current problem(s) and relying on their own self-discipline.

Men's lives are transformed as they come to understand their true identity in Christ and experience His forgiveness, love and acceptance through real friendship with other men.

Grace Ministries' desire is to help men find that an intimate relationship with the Father will change them and those around them forever.
