To equip, enable, and encourage CEBC men to embrace their Godly purpose as servant leaders in their households, workplace and beyond. (Philippians 2:5-8)
WE WANT TO GET MEN AND BOYS ONTO THE TEAM (THE BODY OF CHRIST) AND ONTO THE FIELD. OUR PRIMARY VESSEL FOR ACCOMPLISHING THIS IS THROUGH COMMUNITY.
Welcome to CEBC Men’s Ministry. It is our firm belief that God has called each man to be a leader at various levels. At the same time, however, He did not ask us to do this on our own. In a culture marked with individualism we believe that a major source of strength lies in the community we have built around us. The CEBC Men’s ministry is focused on developing you as a Godly leader by plugging you into our community to build you up and encourage you.
We look forward to connecting with you!

Connection EVENTS 2025
In addition to our men’s breakfasts, the men’s ministry team hosts several events to create space to fellowship with our CEBC men.
Men’s Retreat (March 14-16) Rough Acres Ranch - “Stronger Together”: The amazing site and plush amenities provide the perfect backdrop to foster deeper relationships with other CEBC men. The programming is geared towards 16+ featuring speakers from within the CEBC congregation and activities developed by the men’s leadership team. Mark your calendars and c’mon out!
Father Son Retreat (May 2-4): This annual tradition is an “easy A” for father’s looking to spend quality time with their son. Getting dirty, riding off-road vehicles, chatting around the dinner table eating “healthy” food are the hallmarks of this event. You and your son(s) will build memories and open up channels for deeper connection.
Men’s Steak Night (August): One of the easiest ways to break down walls is food– more specifically, STEAK! We’re intentionally gearing this event for guys searching for meaning in life, so bring your friends and they’ll be fed both physically and spiritually.
