Leary Gates, the outgoing president or NCMM offering a charge and challenge to new president, Mike Young.

Noble Warriors is a member of the National Coalition of Ministries to Men. Some of you have heard the story of how I clearly understood God’s call to men’s discipleship at an NCMM gathering in 2004. I was immediately hooked on the idea of connecting with men across the country who are sold out to the idea of investing in men.

We just held our annual leadership summit in Orlando where over 100 men’s ministry leaders from across the country gathered to share information, ideas, best practices and encouragement. I’m excited to share that I was affirmed as the next president of NCMM. This will be a great opportunity.

When I tell folks about NCMM, I explain that we’re an eclectic group of guys who write books, lead ministries, disciple men one-on-one, speak at men’s events, create resources and/or pastor churches with an intentional focus on men. There are many manifestations of this primary calling that the members share…. We are called to disciple men.

You’ll hear more in the coming months about NCMM and the opportunity we (Noble Warriors friends, fans and family) will have to engage and support NCMM. But for now, would you pray that God will grant me wisdom, clarity and endurance as I take on this new challenge? I truly covet your support in this way.
