You weren’t made to do life alone.
Fire Groups
We encourage all men to have a small group at Discovery, but Fire Groups are not another group.
Men need stories of the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. Men need laughter.
Men need permission to be and become men. And men need each other.
That’s why Fire Groups were born. To gather as men around the timeless fire and share our life and sharpen each other as Men of God.
What Is A Fire Group?
A Fire Group is an authentic, recurring gathering where men experience God through the stories of other men. All around a fire. Fire Groups exist to foster masculine, God-centered, story- shaped connections. For millennia, men have gathered around flames to share stories, laughter, and moments of masculine initiation.
Guidelines
Leave your religious and professional credentials behind. God gets center stage, and his Kingdom sets the agenda— not in any religious way, but on the level of the heart. In the end, there is nothing more valuable for a man than his true heart connecting more deeply with the true heart of God.
Fires are a space for men to share stories, struggles, dreams, and questions. A place for us to experience God together through the ancient practice of storytelling. We are all students, learning together what becoming wholehearted, mature men means. Teaching is not the point. If a man is inadvertently teaching instead of storytelling, there is permission to invite him to course correct.
Fires are a space for authentic masculinity. The mission is to create a soul-safe, nonjudgmental space for all men to be welcomed and honored. It’s essential to lead by example—no posing, hiding, or faking it. All of us will be tempted to pose. Vulnerability, courage, strength, and love are held in the highest regard. Each man has permission to show up exactly as he is—nothing to hide and nothing to prove.
What is shared at a Fire stays at a Fire. Fires are a space for us to practice and play at being sons of God in authentic community. The spirit of the Fires is to learn, grow, and practice, becoming sons together. In order to foster that environment, every man’s story is safe among these men and around these flames.

Mentorship
At Discovery, mentorship part of the discipleship process designed for the ongoing support of those serving in ministry leadership. Taken from the example of the Apostle Paul from 1 Timothy 2:2: “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.”
Within this verse we can see another level of investment that Timothy was to make into those in his church who were reliable (faithful), and able to teach others (lead in ministry).
At Discovery, the discipleship pathway looks like this:
- Step 1: Membership
- Step 2: Discipleship
- Step 3: Leadership
- Step 4: Mentorship
Each of these steps have specific requirements and learning experiences that are essential to your character and Christ-like development.
