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.
An Uncharted Heart Journey for Men
Males face a sea change of cultural cross currents. Amid confusing, contradictory messages about masculinity, to ask the question, “What does it mean to be a godly man?” within our cultural context has to mean more than a tacit return to a nostalgic past.
How to Love God More Deeply
We can’t love God with intensity because we are good or strong. We love God because He reached His loving hand down into the slough of human progress and pain to capture our souls through the grace of Christ.
3 Reasons You Can Believe the Bible Is the Word of God
The most scrutinized and authenticated, scientifically and academically studied, carefully documented and transmitted piece of literature in history happens to make the internal claim to be the written word of God. WHAT IF IT’S TRUE?
Spiritual Leadership: The Prophet, Priest, and King
For a lot of men, there are few terms as confusing or intimidating as when we’re told to be a “spiritual leader.” What does it even mean or look like on a daily basis? We want to demystify this concept so that you can start leading today!

We are bombarded with crises, information, and questions. Because of this, we feel compelled to take a side or have an opinion. Yet we rarely stop to consider whether the issue is something that God’s calling us to engage—or if He is, how.

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)
We’re in the middle of this generation’s Civil Rights Movement on the heels of a worldwide health and economic crisis. We’ve NEVER led through anything like this. How should we respond to this moment as ministry leaders and are we “all in”?
Resurrecting the Family Devotion
I have always viewed family devotions as a requirement of all good Christian dads, and if I wasn’t doing anything, I felt guilty. But mere obligation is a poor motivator. Passion, on the other hand, drives us to overcome obstacles.
