Registration is now closed. We look forward to gathering with the men who will be joining us October 9–11 at Camp IdRaHaJe.
Camaraderie that becomes brotherhood. Formation that carries into Monday through Saturday. Anchored in truth, armored with conviction, ready for Kingdom impact.
Three men will lead the Advance through a focused journey of biblical manhood, identity in Christ, and living with mission and purpose. Select play to hear directly from each speaker.
Founder & President, Tun Tavern Ministry
A former U.S. Marine infantryman who served two combat tours in Iraq, Mike surrendered his life to Jesus in 2005. Today, he works as a federal Regional Project Manager while leading Tun Tavern Ministry’s mission of discipleship, strengthening families, and developing bold biblical leaders. Mike and his wife, Liz, have been married for 20 years.
Executive Director, Exchanged Life Ministries
With more than 30 years of pastoral service across Texas, Illinois, and Colorado, Don has dedicated his life to equipping believers to walk in the freedom of Christ. He holds a ThM from Dallas Theological Seminary and a Doctor of Ministry from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, and he is the author of Entrusting the Treasure. His teaching ministry serves leaders locally and believers around the world.
Church-Planting Leader & Marketplace Veteran
Kent spent 20 years in healthcare sales and executive management with high-tech startups before transitioning to full-time ministry. Over the last two decades, he has helped lead church-planting organizations that established 200 churches across 22 countries, with a strong record of long-term sustainability. Kent and his wife, Nancy, have been married for more than 46 years and live in Denver near their children and grandchildren.
The teaching is designed to build from who a man is, to where his identity is rooted, to how he lives that truth with purpose.
Recognize the calling, responsibility, courage, and character of biblical manhood.
Stand on the truth of who you are in Christ and walk in the freedom He has already given you.
Carry your faith into your family, work, church, community, and the mission God has placed before you.
This weekend is about stability and readiness—men anchored in truth and armored for everyday battle.
A more detailed weekend schedule will be provided to registered attendees as the Advance approaches.
Camp IdRaHaJe sits in the Colorado Front Range outside Bailey— mountain air, space to breathe, and room to reset your bearings.
Camp sits at elevation, so plan for cooler mountain evenings.
