Men's Ministries Department : A Profile of Men of the ChurchEffective men's ministries are tailored to fit the interests and needs of a specific group of men. They are not "canned" or replicated from another group simply because the other group was successful. It is vital, then, to have insight into the attributes of the men of the church, to determine where they are spiritually and culturally.
