Suncrest Church

What does it look like to be a man who follows Jesus in today's world?In a culture where young men are struggling—and often forgotten — Jesus calls men to something better: the Focused Soldier, the Forged Athlete, and the Faithful Farmer. Together, they paint a picture of healthy masculinity that's strong, disciplined, and grounded in purpose.If you're wondering whether Christian men have anything different to offer—this is where the conversation starts.

Do the men of Suncrest look any different than the men of the world? In a culture confused about masculinity, we're calling men to something deeper and better.This isn't about outdated roles or soft stereotypes. It's about becoming the kind of man who lays down his life, aims with purpose, and reflects the heart of God. Through Scripture, cultural voices, and powerful images—from sitcom dads to Titanic heroes—we remember what's been lost… and what must be found again.

Real masculinity isn't toxic—it's tough, tender, and tasked by God to build, protect, and take sacrificial responsibility.

What goes around often comes around. The people who hurt us may some day need us. When that (inevitably) happens, what we choose to say will say as much about us as anything else.

The longer we listen, the more we learn, and the better chance we have of protecting ourselves from our own big mouths. In all our conversations, what if we didn't aim to be right, but tried to make things right instead?

What we say can impact the quality and even the direction of the lives of the people around us. How can we use this power for good?

For many of us, it's easy to get caught up in trying to figure out who we are in the midst of understanding our mental health. It can feel daunting to navigate between the truth and the lies in our minds. Jesus offers us a lens to look at ourselves through to help us filter out who we really are.

A lot of us are having a hard time. In fact, maybe we all need to be more comfortable with saying, "I'm not ok". To kick off this series about taking mental health seriously, we want you to know... it's ok to not be ok.

What would it take for you to actually grow this year? What would it take for your faith to grow? Jesus tells a compelling story about seeds and soil, in which, maybe you can see yourself.

You've heard the phrase, "It takes a village" to describe many things... but it really does take all of us doing our own, uniquely gifted part to stick together well.

Relationships are everything...so followers of Jesus prioritize unity and humility...but this is almost impossible.

It can be so hard figuring out how to untangle some of life's biggest questions. The Apostle Paul, one of Jesus's earliest followers, gave amazing insight into how to find perspective... in light of eternity.
