Introducing the New Adam Project
The New Adam Project is a new initiative from Man in the Mirror built by contributing members from around the country.
The New Adam Project provides insight into the current state of men in our world.
The Solution to STUCK
As Christians, we share the same, one-size-fits-all goal: to abide in Christ, to love others as Christ loved us, and to bear fruit. So why do so many of us feel stuck right now? And could there also be a one-size-fits-all solution?
The Move Away from Men’s Ministry
After 30 years of working with thousands of churches, we believe that a specific, focused ministry to men that provides guys with the opportunity to meet together is a great thing for the men, for marriages, for families, and for the body.
Losing the Church
Some who have been distant from community for three months are growing comfortable in that isolation. And now that the habits of church attendance have been broken, the risk is that men who adjust to this new normal will be gone for good.
The Healing Power of a Relationship (Part 2 of 3)
After years of work on racial reconciliation, I assure you nothing will change just because we think it’s important. If you feel like the problem is so big that you’re powerless to do anything, here’s a way you can make a difference NOW.
The Grit to Lead in a Crisis (Part 3 of 3)

I may not be kneeling on anyone’s neck, but am I watching and saying nothing? The truth is that not speaking is saying something. The silence of a Christian man not outraged by injustice is deafening.
3 Lessons from the Coach’s Playbook
Our ministry is forever indebted to Coach K. As we like to say, discipleship changes everything, and he centered his life on that truth. We know his legacy lives on in the men transformed by these three powerful lessons.
Make This the Defining Moment of Your Life
What can you learn from this moment that you could learn no other way? Patrick Morley has created this short guide to help you stop and process the bigger picture of your life through the lens of this time.
Family As Your First Ministry
Whether you’re looking for a better work/life balance, wondering how to spiritually lead your family, or struggling relationally at home, a good starting point is recognizing that if you have a family, your family is your first ministry.
Plagues and Prayer
Maybe you’re on the front lines fighting this plague or maybe, like me, you’re watching from the sidelines. From there, what can we do? Someone said, “I guess the only thing we can do is pray.” Better to say, “The thing we can do is pray.”
