Men’s Summer Connects

This summer, the Men at Magnify are trading “busy” for bonfires. We’re gathering monthly for low-key evenings designed to help you recharge, reconnect, and recalibrate. Whether we’re out on the water or sitting around a fire, the goal is simple: eat, drink, and be men. We aren’t just killing time; we’re having intentional conversations about what it actually looks like to lead, love, and follow Jesus in 2026. You can expect to leave encouraged, challenged, and better equipped for the life God has called you to live.
