A POWERFUL START TO 2026

A Powerful Start to 2026: The Kingdom Men of Chosen Gather for the First Man Cave Session

The Kingdom Men of Chosen launched 2026 the right way…with PURPOSE, BROTHERHOOD, and AUTHENTICITY. Our very first Man Cave session of the year did not disappoint. With nearly 60 men in attendance, the fellowship breakfast set the tone for what promises to be a transformative year.

Led by Brother Geno Frazier, the morning was marked by transparency, genuine connection…and let’s be honest some phenomenal food. From the moment the doors opened, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, creating space for real conversations and real fellowship.
One of the highlights of the morning was the introduction of our Men’s Ministry Leadership Team:

Brother Geno Frazier
Brother David Jensen
Brother Paul Palmer
Brother Brett Swanson
Brother Derrick Shepard Sr.
Brother Elliot Dangerfield Sr.
Brother David Dewberry Sr.

Each leader took time to share a bit about who they are, allowing the men in the room to connect not just with titles, but with hearts and stories.

During our time together, the Men’s Ministry spoke directly to a defining theme for 2026: the importance of getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. We were challenged to move beyond familiar spaces, routines, and comfort levels. Growth requires movement, stretching, and sometimes discomfort…and if we truly desire to mature as men, leaders, husbands, fathers, and Kingdom builders, we must be willing to step into spaces that push us forward.
It was evident that intentional care went into every detail.

The leadership team worked seamlessly to ensure every brother felt seen, welcomed, and supported. The environment encouraged us to laugh together, pray together, and yes…even cry together. That’s the beauty of true brotherhood.
We closed the morning with a powerful reminder from Pastor Craig Walder Jr., who reinforced what it means to walk as a Kingdom man. He emphasized that unity, accountability, and consistency are not optional. They are essential.

When men stand together with a united front and walk boldly in their God-given purpose, growth is inevitable. This first Man Cave session was more than a breakfast…IT WAS A STATEMENT …A statement that 2026 will be a year of alignment, growth, and intentional brotherhood.

And trust us…this was just the beginning. The next Man Cave is coming and you won’t want to miss it. It is scheduled for Saturday, February 21 from 4 to 7 PM at chosen this is the second annual Books, Buckets and Bones fellowship. Registration is open now in the Upcoming Event section on the TCC app. Registration closes at midnight on February, 18th.
