Barna’s data-driven guidebook for men’s ministries

Men need each other—and the Church—to help them journey well. 

A new generation of young men have come into adulthood, and they are facing a unique set of cultural challenges, including changes in the workplace, an inconsistent economy, more complicated family lives and dramatic revisions in gender roles and expectations.

That’s why Barna partnered with BetterMan, a resource for men’s ministries, discipleship groups and pastors, to find out how both churchgoing Christians and men overall are navigating 21st-century waters. If you’re wondering what it would look like to modernize your men’s ministry, this report can help. 

Five Essentials to Engage Today’s Men is a data-driven guidebook for leaders who want to have a greater impact on men. 

Each brief chapter unpacks data on one essential aspect of men’s lives:

-Identity

-Vocation

-Well-being

-Relationships

-Church engagement

And those five chapters are followed by a field guide to help you put the data into action in your own ministry.

It will give you a clear lens into the struggles Christian men are facing and will point out opportunities for reaching non-Christian men more effectively. 

The cultural ground is shifting beneath men’s feet, but the scriptures offer solid ground on which to build a manhood for the 21st-century and beyond. 

We pray this resource will inform and inspire you as you guide men into the future God is preparing for them.
