Welcome to Men’s Ministry
Welcome From the Pastor
Welcome to the Men’s Ministry of North Coast Calvary Chapel. Our mission is to love God, love others, serve and change our world. The call is to radical discipleship, to be a follower of Christ no matter the cost. It is neither cheap nor easy. But it is the greatest adventure life affords. There are many opportunities for you to join with other like-minded men who are serious about this mission, this cause, this call. Our purpose is to help men CONNECT, GROW, and SERVE through the opportunities listed below.
Welcome and may God richly bless you in the journey!

33 - The Series
Volume I contains six sessions that explore the basic foundations of Authentic Manhood and God’s clear design for men. It envisions and challenges men in a clear and compelling way.
Band together with other men. This 6-week study begins on Thursday, May 2 at 6:30 am in B-202. The class & workbook is $16.
ROMAN ROAD
Have you ever wanted to be in a men’s bible study environment that was non-threatening, interactive, welcoming, and exciting?
ROMAN ROAD is just such an environment. Each week we gather in the Alcove just off the Foyer in the Family Center to study God’s Word.
The goal is to build better men so that “we might present every man perfect in Christ.” So the goal of our instruction is love for God our family, and friends.
This Spring’s step by step journey will be in the Psalms, which have long been used as the worship vocabulary of the church.
The Psalms are filled with every emotion common to men. So no matter the condition of your heart or the circumstances of life, you will find yourself in the Psalms.
Arranged into 5 books, and written by many authors, the most noted writer is of course, King David the warrior-worshiper.
Each week we will focus on a Psalm and go through it verse by verse and apply it to our lives.
Join us for an exciting study of discovery in the Psalms beginning Monday, February 4 at 7 pm in the Alcove. Sign up online or at the Men’s Table.
The Power Room
Taken from the legendary British preacher, C.H. Spurgeon, this is a monthly gathering of men learning to pray bigger prayers, bringing the Kingdom of God,
and praying for our nation, our cities, our families. The apostle Paul encourages men to “lift up holy hands.” Men learn to pray by praying.
Men gather to pray the 2nd Saturday of each month from 7-8 am in the Fireside Room. Come and exercise your faith with us.
Band of Brothers
We are Men gathering outside on Tuesday nights at 5:50 pm in the Fireside Room or Tent—depending on the night. Our mission is to learn to love Jesus and each other. Come right after work and enjoy an amazing time of fellowship, someone shares something from the Bible, someone else shares their story, dinner and dessert for a suggested donation of $7. Acoustic worship, Word, and good conversation. Great way to connect and make some new friends.
