A Year of Biblical Manhood: Introducing Our 2026 Content Strategy

Eugene Allen • January 9, 2026

Brothers,


We've been thinking and praying about what our GraceMen ministry needs most in 2026. And we keep coming back to this: guys need help. Real help. Not motivational quotes or surface-level advice, but solid biblical truth that actually changes how you think, pray, and live.


So we want to unveil our approach for blog content over the course of this year.  But it's not going to be random posts whenever we feel like it. We've mapped out a full year of content with a real strategy behind it.


Here's What We're Going For


Our goal is simple: we want to help men grow into the kind of disciples Jesus is actually calling us to be. Men who know God deeply. Men who think biblically instead of just accepting whatever the culture throws at us. Men who can stand firm in their faith, lead their families well, and leave something worth leaving to the next generation.


We're not interested in producing comfortable Christians. We need warriors—men who understand the spiritual battle we're in and aren't afraid to engage it.


How We're Doing It


We're rotating through five themes, one each week:


  • Wisdom – Starting with the foundation. What does it actually mean to fear the Lord? How do we live righteously? What makes a man truly wise? We'll dig into the hard stuff about the heart, sin, sanctification, and ultimately, God's glory.


  • Renewing Your Mind – Let's be honest: the world is fighting for your thoughts. Through social media, pornography, comparison, anxiety, career stress, and a thousand lies about who you are. We're going to work through how to take every thought captive and actually think like Christ.


  • Run/Fight – The Christian life is both a race and a battle. Some weeks we'll talk about endurance—how to keep going when you're tired. Other weeks we'll talk about standing your ground in spiritual warfare, knowing your enemy, and fighting alongside your brothers.


  • Psalms – These are warrior prayers. Not soft meditation stuff, but real prayers for courage, protection, vindication, and the strength to keep going. We'll let the Psalms teach us how to pray as men who are in the middle of a real battle.


  • Miscellaneous – Space for whatever God brings up or whatever our community needs.


The Path We're Taking


We're building the year like a progression, not just random topics:


The first quarter gets us grounded in theology—knowing God, understanding the battle, renewing our minds to Scripture.


Spring and early summer we're getting practical about holiness—actually putting sin to death, learning to suffer well, doing this together as brothers.


Fall we're looking outward—how do we stay faithful in a culture that's constantly compromising? How do we know the enemy? How do we keep our faith when everyone around us seems to be abandoning theirs?


By the end of the year, we're thinking about legacy—how do we finish strong? What are we actually passing on to the next generation? What does rest in Christ actually look like?


What This Means for You


Every week you'll get something that's:


  • Rooted in Scripture, not some guy's opinion
  • Serious enough to actually challenge you
  • Real enough that you can actually use it
  • Written for men, not everyone


We're going to assume you're hungry for more than surface-level faith. We're going to dig into hard passages, hard questions, and hard truths.


We Need You In This


Don't just read this stuff. Talk about it. Bring it to your small group. Wrestle with it. Let it mess with your thinking if it needs to. Live it out in how you treat your wife, raise your kids, lead at work, and show up for your brothers.


This is going to be a year where we actually grow—not just learn more information, but become more like Christ. More courageous. More faithful. More clear-headed. More committed to the gospel.


We're pumped about what God's going to do in and through all of us this year.


See you in the first post.


Coram Deo


We launch 1/9/2026. Invite another guy to read it with you.
