Come discover our powerful vision to continue building the future and to see families and communities changed by the spiritual transformation of men.

Dr. Patrick Morley
Founder, Man in the Mirror
In 1986 Pat started a men’s Bible study (in a bar, no less!)—a study he still teaches. After writing The Man in the Mirror—named one of the 100 most influential Christian books of the 20th century—Pat founded the ministry, Man in the Mirror. Author of 23 books his latest works are From Broken Boy to Mended Man and What If Christianity Is True? He and his wife live in Winter Park, Florida.

Brett Clemmer
President, Man in the Mirror
After a career in social services and business, Brett joined the ministry in 2000. After experiencing life change reading The Man in the Mirror with a small group of men at his church and a spectacular business failure, Brett was ready when the opportunity arose. He has worked in almost every department becoming President in 2016. Brett grew up outside of Boston, but Florida is where he and his wife Kimberly have lived their entire marriage, raising two amazing kids. He is active at his church, teaching, leading a men’s group, and being a spiritual father.
