Gentlemen let’s get real for a minute. Some of you are praying for peace but still holding onto bitterness. Some of you are asking God to move in your life while refusing to move your feet. Some of you are trying to walk in freedom but haven’t let go of the chains. We say we’re ready to lead, but are we really? The truth is: you can’t lead your family while dragging the weight of your past. You can’t fully show up for your brothers when your heart is still divided. So today, I want to ask you something that might sting a little… 👉 What are you still carrying that you know you need to lay at the feet of God? Is it anger? Pride? Shame? Addiction? Fear? Unforgiveness? Don’t answer for show. Answer to grow. We’re not here to play church. We’re not here to act tough. We’re here to rise. Together. Drop a comment and name ONE thing you're laying down this week. We’ll stand with you. Pray with you. Fight with you. Because that’s what brotherhood is for. 📖 "Cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you." – Psalm 55:22 💥 “Real strength isn’t pretending you’re fine. It’s admitting when you’re not and refusing to stay there.”

@Darnell Graham @Chris Martins @Haroon Khalil 🔥 @Leonard Warren You made it. Grab a seat. The fires already lit, and there’s a spot just for you. This isn’t a place where you have to prove yourself. You don’t need to fake strength or pretend you’ve got it all together. Around here, we’re just men trying to grow — in our faith, our discipline, our fatherhood, and our purpose. We laugh here. We vent here. We push each other to be better, and we celebrate every win — even the small ones. This is a circle of brothers who get it. So, whether you’re coming in from a storm, searching for direction, or just tired of doing it alone… welcome. You’re not alone anymore. We Rise Higher When We Rise Together Here’s how to jump in: - 🔥 Introduce yourself — Who are you? Where you from? What brought you to the fire? - 🔥 Engage — Drop a comment. Ask a question. Share a thought. We’re listening. - 🔥 Check in often — This isn’t just a place to scroll… it’s a place to belong. We’re glad you’re here, brother. Now pull up that chair. Let’s build something that lasts.

Brotherhood starts with connection—and connection starts with conversation. Drop your answers below 👇 1. Where are you from? 2. What’s one thing you’re passionate about? Let’s get to know the men we’re walking beside. You never know who’s walking a similar road—or who needs to hear your story. We’re not strangers here. We’re brothers.

I'm curious. What the best option for the group calls. Should I just put out a reminder as we are leading up to the call or change the time.
