Imagine a blacksmith's shop, a place of intense heat and powerful transformation. The air is thick with the scent of steel and smoke. A heavy hammer pounds rhythmically against an anvil, sparks flying with each strike, as a broken tool is heated, reshaped, and reforged with renewed strength and purpose.
This powerful image of being "reforged" illustrates the spiritual transformation we believe God desires for each of us: taking our brokenness, failures, and weaknesses, and reshaping us.
We invite this image to guide us throughout our journey together.
Here at The Forge, we focus on three core ideas:
Reengage God: Deepen your spiritual connection.
Rebuild relationships: Foster community and true fellowship.
Reclaim you God-designed purpose: Step into who you were made to be.
Our goal is to guide men toward a deeper, more intimate relationship with God, allowing His truth and a supportive community to reshape them into His purposeful workmanship. Your brokenness is not a disqualification, it is an invitation to a deeper, more intimate relationship with God.
