How Each Session Works

Every session follows the same one-hour structure — consistent enough that any man can lead it.

0–20 min

Wins & Wars

Each man shares one win and one war from his week. Builds trust. Builds honesty.

20–40 min

Teaching Video

Matthew teaches from the book. Men follow along in the Participant Guide and fill in the blanks.

40–60 min

Discussion

Three questions. Open table. The leader facilitates — he does not lecture.

Closing

Prayer & Homework

Close in prayer. Men take one homework assignment into the week to go deeper.

All 10 Sessions

Built around the book's five-part framework — two sessions per part, plus an opening and a commissioning close.
