Armor Bearers is our monthly gathering for ECMen, dedicated to the real-world mechanics of discipleship. True growth doesn't happen by accident; it requires the intentional decision to step out of isolation and into brotherhood. Join us each month to discover what true discipleship looks like, hear powerful testimonies, and connect with other men who are hungry for a deeper relationship with Christ.

What We Do

1

Monthly Meetings

We meet once a month as a large group. This is your consistent, ongoing opportunity to connect, recharge, and anchor yourself in the Word. An emphasis on our messages will be on discipleship.

2

Real Testimonies

We don't just talk in theories. Every month, you will hear unfiltered stories from other men about what following Christ looks like in their homes, workplaces, and communities.

3

Organic Growth

Over time, as you attend and build relationships, you’ll have the opportunity to naturally form or join small micro-groups of 3 to 4 guys who want to dive even deeper together.

What is an Armor Bearer?

God has called you to a purpose, but He never intended you to fight the battle alone.

In biblical times, an armor bearer was more than a servant; he was a brother-in-arms. He carried the supplies, tended the wounds, and stood in the gap when the battle became too intense to handle solo.

We see this profound brotherhood in 1 Samuel 14:6-7, when Jonathan prepares to advance on an enemy garrison against overwhelming odds:

Jonathan said to the young man who carried his armor, “Come, let us go over to the garrison… for nothing can hinder the Lord from saving by many or by few.”

And his armor-bearer said to him, “Do all that is in your heart. Do as you wish. Behold, I am with you heart and soul.

At ECMen, we believe every man needs an armor bearer in his life. Whether you are currently in the thick of a battle or preparing for one, we invite you to lock shields with other Godly men.
