RezMen

A brotherhood on a journey with Jesus Christ.

"If anyone serves me, he must follow me;
and where I am, there will my servant be also."
--Jesus (John 12:26)

RezMen is the name of the men’s ministry at Rez. We see ourselves as a brotherhood on a journey with Jesus Christ. Not rugged individualists nor Lone Rangers for Christ. We’ve learned that’s a futile and lonely enterprise. We know we need each other, especially if we’re going to make any progress in our ultimate goal: to be transformed into the image of God’s Son. We’ve discovered that this cannot happen without the power of the Holy Spirit, and that we cannot know this power fully without journeying together.

This business of transformation happens in a variety of settings, because we want to encourage men no matter their level of faith and commitment. Some of us are just exploring what it means to journey with Christ; some have been doing it for decades. Some know little or nothing about theology; some know a ton. Some are contemplatives; some love getting things done in the world. But all of us are struggling with one thing or another. We need one another in all our gifts, abilities, and experiences. The point is not to look like one another—as if there were one ideal Rez man—but to journey together toward Christ, to let him transform each of us as he will. We want to offer opportunities to listen and pray for one another, to encourage each other in faith, and to simply enjoy our friendship and brotherhood in Christ.

We offer a number of ways to plug into this brotherhood, and we hope to offer a few more in the coming year.
