Most of our Bible study throughout our Christian lives focuses on understanding God and learning how to live in right relationship to Him, ourselves and each other-and this is certainly vital to our spiritual growth. However, the Bible also teaches us how to live in right relationship to every aspect of God’s creation, which includes society, culture, art, economics, education and politics just to name a few. Furthermore, the Bible helps us understand how to properly order (or re-order) the fallen world as we join Christ in his work of restoring all things. This is where a “Christian worldview” proves vital.

Ours is a world where the “powers and principalities” are actively working to dis-order God’s good creation in areas such as marriage, family, human sexuality, and personhood. As disciples of Christ, we cannot truly love our neighbors and remain indifferent to ideas and actions that do harm to people and God’s creation. The fact is “ideas have consequences and bad ideas have victims.” Because we care about the victims of “bad ideas,” we are pleased to partner with the Colson Center for Christian Worldview in bringing the Colson Fellows Program to MBC.

The Colson Fellows Program is a transformational course that compresses a lifetime of Christian wisdom…into nine months. This program will establish a solid foundation for those who are new to the study of Christian worldview, and for those who are well-versed in worldview and apologetics; you will gain new insights into today ‘s rapidly changing culture. Colson Fellows-in-Training go beyond understanding worldview as mere arguments and facts, and develop instead, the critical thinking skills or wisdom to discern what is or is not true, good, and beautiful in every issue that assails us today so they can understand the times and engage others thoughtfully and with grace.

Program Overview

Beginning each August, Colson Fellows-in-Training follow a carefully curated curriculum that helps them understand and identify worldviews and how they manifest in today’s ideas, philosophies, policies and practice. You will learn how to analyze and understand culture and its influence. Additionally, we will examine current cultural flashpoints such as race relations, progressive sexuality, religious liberty, the role of government, economics, and sanctity of life. Finally, Colson Fellows-in-Training will examine the concept of “calling” and develop a “Personal Ministry Plan” that will help them discover their calling, identify their unique gifts and sphere of influence.

Other features of the Program include:

24/7 /365 access to the Colson Fellows Online Learning Platform;
Monthly Meetings facilitated by Bob Erbig, Lead Pastor for Preaching, Family Life and Mission, a commissioned Colson Fellow.
Twice-Monthly Video Webinars in which you are able to interact with authors from the reading list
and other leading worldview scholars;
Interactive daily devotionals that weave together all course components;
Assistance developing a teaching practicum in which you will teach on a topic you’ve learned;
Strengths Finder assessment;
Lifetime access to Colson Center resources and ongoing worldview education;
Inclusion into a network of over 2000 Colson Fellows working across the globe in various spheres of Christian ministry.

Costs:

Typically, participants in the Colson Fellows Program pay $900.
Through an exclusive Licensing Agreement with the Colson Center, MBC members only pay $550 in tuition. Estimated book costs are an additional $200.
Participants will need to purchase books from a source of their choice such as Amazon.

Schedule:

Registration closes August 1, 2026
Online access to the Course opens July 1, 2026
Monthly sessions begin August 8th, 2025 and continue on the 2nd Saturday of each month through May 2027. Room and location TBD. Coffee and refreshments will be available.
Students completing the Program will be commissioned in May 2027.

Band of Brothers

Overview

September will begin the second full year of our Band of Brothers program at MBC! It is amazing to see what the Lord has done through and in this group, and we are so excited to see what the Lord will continue to do in our group. In the coming year we will continue with our vision:

“To cultivate an environment where young men can support each other through fellowship, Bible reading, and prayer. Our goal is to grow in the Lord as we tackle various topics and read challenging chapters of Scripture. We will delve into the deepest parts of our existence because the Lord Jesus is coming back, and we must be ready. Each of us has a divine assignment and spiritual gifts that we intend to discover and embrace. In short, we are cultivating spiritual warriors for Jesus.”

With the goals of: Cultivating Biblical worldviews. Bearing one another’s burdens. Confessing sins to one another. Adopting a Biblical view of masculinity. Establishing Biblical character. Till soil where seed can be planted, watered, and bear fruit. Establish ourselves in the ways of the Lord.

This year, we’re building a well-rounded calendar that balances meaningful topics with purposeful activities. To make that happen, our year will follow four distinct phases:

Phase 1: Foundation

In our Foundation Phase, we will lay the groundwork for everything we’ll discuss throughout the year. We will return to the basics of Christianity because we need to know what we believe, why we believe it, and we must know it well. These truths shape who we are and who we aspire to be, and by studying them together, we will set a strong foundation for the year ahead.

Base Material Francis Chan: What is a Christian (Right Now Media Video Series)

Phase 2: Jesus

Jesus is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. Without Him and His life, we have nothing to stand on. As we approach Easter, we will seek to grow more deeply acquainted with our Savior: who He is, what His character is like, and how we can become more like Him. We will reflect on the truths of the Gospel of the Kingdom of God and intentionally apply them to our lives.

Base Material JD Greer: Who is Jesus (Right Now Media video series)

Phase 3: What is a Man?

After Easter, we will turn our focus inward to who we are as individuals. More specifically: What is a man of God, and how do I become one? In today’s culture, the definition of “being a man” is not only ever shifting, but it often stands in direct contrast to the biblical picture of manhood. We will explore God’s Word to discover His design for a man and commit ourselves to growing together into the men He created us to be. During this phase, we will be inviting in strong men of God to share and teach their life experiences. Our goal is to create an environment of open discussion with more experienced men that are farther in their walk with the Lord than we are, and to also provide a space where connections with these men can flourish for future mentorship and opportunity.

Phase 4: Worldview

Our culture constantly bombards us with messages, pressures, and ideas — and for a high school young man, there’s a lot to process. In a world saturated with sexual temptation, moral confusion, and cultural dilemmas, the question is: How do we see the world through the lens of the Christian faith? This summer, we will examine the culture around us, measure it against biblical truth, and discuss how to live faithfully in it. This phase will be led by an accredited Colson Fellow, equipping us with the tools to think clearly, live faithfully, and stand courageously for Christ in our time.

Special Events

At Band of Brothers, we feel it is important to create environments for growth outside of the normal “War Room Experience.” This year we are committed to doing a better job of creating those events to provide a well-rounded experience for our young men.

Hikes

Often the punchline of Band of Brothers, hikes are something that we truly want to implement this year. These hikes will not only get us out in creation, but provide avenues of Bible study, spiritual growth and worship in a new environment.

Bonfires

Bonfires are already something we love at Band of Brothers. Some of the most impactful nights we have had are shared thoughts and experiences around the fire. Whether during the summertime on the beach, or in the height of winter around a burn barrel, we will continue to utilize this effective method of meeting style intermittently throughout the year.

Movie Nights

A new item that we want to add this year. We would like to spend strategically placed meetings watching a film. Watching films as a group is a fun time to connect, but also an awesome time to learn together.

Food Events

As a man, food is a cornerstone to everything we do. We must eat, so we shall. Throughout the year we will take the time to break bread with one another, whether at bonfires or at one off events, we feel that some of the best discussions of all time happen around the dinner table, so we will use that to our advantage.

Seminars

Seminars are something new we want to do this year. We want to bring in well-rounded men of God from different walks in life to share their life experiences with our group. These will primarily happen during our Third phase, but also potentially at our bonfire nights.

Tentative Calendar

We have a lot planned for the next year for Band of Brothers. Check out this calendar to see all that you can take part in with the group!

Final Thoughts
As we step into this year of Band of Brothers, we do so with gratitude for what God has done, and expectation for what He will do. Every phase, meeting, and event is an opportunity to grow in Christ, sharpen one another, and prepare for the calling God has placed on our lives. Our prayer is that each young man would leave this year with a deeper love for Jesus, a stronger grasp of His Word, and a clear vision of what it means to live as a man of God today. Let’s commit ourselves fully to the work God wants to do in us for His glory, and our Good.

Sincerely,
Cory Dziedzic, Johnny Graves, Ben Youtkus & Tim Youtkus
Band of Brothers Leadership.
