My biggest challenge was that I had no clear direction to disciple my son. I felt embarrassed, frustrated, and overwhelmed. As a part of ManYear, I now have a plan and am very excited about this breakthrough!
— Blake D.
ManYear has made it evident that I must be intentional. My time is limited and I need to finish strong. In order to do this, I must move with a since of urgency. ManYear is NEEDED and is a journey to change lives.
— John M.
 
 

The Promise:

What’s My Investment?

How many days do you have left with your son? How much is your hectic pace costing you, rushing through the vital years of your son’s life? How important is it to pass on the values of your family? How many men are you inspiring to parent their sons? Does your son see you fathering him with purpose and direction? A lack of clarity and intention may be costing you a good deal.

Pricing for ManYear is determined through conversation, honoring your context and resources. With that said, this journey will be an investment of time and finances. It will also be an investment in yourself and in your son that will offer returns for years to come.

F.A.Q.s.

1) What age would you recommend for ManYear?

Boys ages 12-16 are recommended, but this is also a discernment on your part. If you believe your son is ready for this type of experience, then he is ready. The types of the conversations and experiences will be different depending on the age of your son.

2) Does my son come on the retreat?

The retreat is designed for fathers only. The goal of the retreat is equip you, as a father, to create conversations and experiences with your son. This will allow him to look to you as you lead him into manhood.

3) What about daughters?

Currently, there is no ManYear equivalent for daughters, but this will be a high priority in the future.

4) I know a young man who doesn’t have a father in the home, can I take him on this journey?

Yes. There are some unique strategies to employ in this situation, but it can definitely be done.

4) Can I do this with a group of men I already know?

Yes! This is a great opportunity for men who already know each other from church or other types of gatherings to journey together.

6) Is ManYear Christian?

Yes. ManYear is guided by Brian Pitts. Brian has a Masters of Divinity from Beeson Divinity School in Birmingham, AL, has served for 16 years as a Campus Pastor at Samford University, and is a worship pastor at Brookwood Baptist Church. The foundational mandate of this journey is rooted in Deuteronomy 6:4-9. The retreat is modeled on Jesus’ journey in Luke 1-4. Scripture and prayer is woven throughout the process. In addition, ManYear is partnered with the The Center for Executive Leadership, a non-profit Christian ministry dedicated to “getting men into the Word and the Word into the world.”

7) What is the history of ManYear?

As a college pastor for the past 16 years, I’ve seen an absolute need for fathers to guide their sons. This led me on a twelve year journey, searching for the best ways to guide my own sons into manhood. As I told other fathers about my own journey, it became clear a need existed beyond my own family. I took the information from my personal studies and the best practices from my training as a coach to craft the journey.
