Mantle Men’s Monday - 02 09 2026

By Hunter Bland on February 9, 2026

Happy Monday, gentleman! Let’s continue to lead and love well! As we step into the new week let’s show the love of Jesus to all those around us. “Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭10‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Let’s make a conscious effort to be servant leaders this week. Let’s put the needs of others before ourselves. Let’s serve our wives, children, and communities well, by sharing the love of Jesus. Remember - it’s not about what’s in it for us! It’s self sacrificial love. Men, let’s continue to answer the call by leading with love. Let’s do everything in love, be slow to anger, and just look for ways to serve others. Let’s model our leadership after Jesus! You got this. Men - I’m proud of you! Keep showing up. Keep leading well. Keep drawing closer to Jesus! Have a great week! Challenge - serve your wife, family and kids this week individually by doing something unexpected, without being asked. Song: Yes I Will - Vertical Worship

Monday 12/8 Devotional

By chris Marshall on December 11, 2025

Happy Monday, gentlemen! I hope everyone had a great weekend and you got to slow down for a bit. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 NIV The challenge I have for all of us is that we lead more courageously and have complete trust in the Lord. God is bigger than anything life throws at us, but we have to fully surrender it to him and fully surrender our lives to him. We serve a big God that can do the impossible. You were never meant to do it on your own. God is bigger than that situation at work. God is bigger than that financial strain. God is bigger than that relationship problem. God is bigger than infertility. God is bigger than that mental battle. God is bigger than that addiction. God is bigger than job search. God IS bigger. God loves you and cares for you. It’s time us men continue to show those around us “I don’t got this”, but we know who does. I encourage us all to fully surrender every aspect of our lives to the Lord. I’m proud of you! Keep showing up! Keep working hard! Keep leading your families well! Have a great week! Song of the week: Strong Enough - Matthew West
