Some of the toughest times in my life were when I allowed myself to be distanced from God. I've never left the church, but there are times when I wasn't fully connected for various reasons. When this happened, I found myself making poor choices and making life more difficult than it needed to be.
To keep this from happening again, I've tried to find resources that keep me grounded in God’s word, so that I don't stray too far. These resources are not a substitute for being engaged in a church, but can be a great way to supplement your learning or help you if you are not currently a member of a church for any reason.

This topic has been on my heart for many years. It's always painful to watch organizations slowly die. If your men's group or church is on life support, I hope this article can help you make a full recovery! Some of my examples for doing things right come from my experience working as a project manager in corporate america. I can already hear some of you now, "you can't run the church like a corporation!" No, you cannot run your church exactly like a corporation, but thriving and innovative organizations understand how to learn and borrow from others, so that you can improve your situation.
