Connecting Men
Saddleback Men exists to AWAKEN your heart towards God and this incredible community of diverse men.
MAN UP
Join us for a “guys night out” you won’t regret the next morning! It’s made up of three key ingredients: Red MEAT. Live MUSIC. Manly MESSAGE. Come get pumped up, without the hassle of hitting the gym!
Small Groups
“No man is an island” . . . that’s not just pretty prose. It’s hard-core reality. Isolation, especially for men, is dangerous. Real men come out of their caves and find community in Saddleback’s small groups.
Whether you want to connect in a home, at your workplace, on campus, or online, we have hundreds of groups to match every age and stage of life.
Retreats
Sometimes you just need to get away and get with God. That’s why our Men’s retreats are the ideal place to unplug from life and connect with others. So whether it’s journeying together in the Sequoia National Forest or spending a day at our secret spot in San Juan Capistrano, we want you to be part of the experience.
Equipping Men
Saddleback Men exists to provide you with the necessary tools and resources to ACCELERATE your walk with Christ and lead a purpose-driven life.
