Our Study

At The Forge, we gather around God’s Word with intentionality and purpose. In each season, we work through a biblically grounded book, study guide, and/or video series — reading or watching on our own throughout the week and sharpening one another through thoughtful discussion when we meet. Every man purchases his own copy or access so he can engage deeply, note what stands out, and allow God’s truth and the work of the Holy Spirit to shape him personally.

Our aim is simple: to grow as disciples of Christ, together, in a way that produces real transformation.

Current Study

The Titus TenThe Titus Ten: Foundations for Godly Manhood

by J. Josh Smith

The Titus Ten lays out ten biblical principles for becoming a godly man, drawn directly from Paul’s letter to Titus. The book calls men to live with conviction, humility, courage, and purpose — grounded in God’s Word and strengthened by brotherhood.

We chose this study because it speaks directly to who we desire to become as a group: men defined by character, integrity, faithfulness, and spiritual maturity. Each chapter challenges us to look honestly at our lives and pursue growth that honors Christ.

What we’re focusing on:

  • Understanding God’s design for godly manhood

  • Developing lives marked by faithfulness and self-control

  • Leading our families, workplaces, and communities with Christlike character

  • Encouraging one another to apply Scripture in daily life

Next Study

Stand Firm & Act Like MenStand Firm and Act Like Men: Becoming the Man You Were Created to Be Instead of Who the World Says You Are

by Joby Martin & Charles Martin

After completing The Titus Ten, our next study will build on the same foundation of biblical manhood but press even more deeply into courage, identity, and spiritual resilience. Stand Firm and Act Like Men challenges men to reject cultural confusion, embrace God’s calling, and pursue strength rooted in Christ—not in worldly values.

This study aligns with the heart of The Forge:

  • Standing firm on truth

  • Rejecting passivity and cultural compromise

  • Developing bold, Christ-centered masculinity

  • Growing into the men God designed us to be
