Summary

Why do we need men in a parish? How do we form smaller men's groups? What should be the focus of men's groups? We talk about this with our good friend, Fr. Brian O'Brien. Men's groups should focus on: 1. Events led by men 2. Jesus Christ as the focus 3. Emphasis on reconciliation and the Eucharist 4. Catechesis with a male perspective 5. A commitment of the Bishop and priests 6. Build off of existing men's groups 7. Hold diocese-wide events on a regular basis 8. Hold frequent parish-focused men's events 9. Incorporating "dad-kid" events This episode is sponsored by Select International Tours, Christ Centered Captital, and Exodus90
