Your workplace is your mission field. Are you treating it that way?

Most men lead with competence. Fewer lead with purpose. And even fewer understand that where they've been placed, their team, their industry, their city, is not an accident.

CBMC deploys men to lead with both.

Not as a boss. As a brother. Not for a paycheck. For a legacy.

If you've been wondering whether your faith has a place at work, it does. And there are men willing to walk that road with you.

Here's something nobody talks about in the workplace. The higher you climb, the lonelier it gets.

More responsibility. More people are counting on you. Fewer people you can actually be open and honest with. Men are wired for achievement. We're also wired for community.

But somewhere along the way, most of us got the message that needing other men means we're not strong enough to lead. That message is a lie, and it's costing you.

Proverbs 27:17 says iron sharpens iron. That's not a motivational poster. It's God's design for how men grow. Through real, honest, Godly relationships with other men who are in the same arena.

CBMC introduces men in the workplace to exactly that. Not a networking event. Not a casual lunch group. A brotherhood where faith is lived out Monday through Friday, where accountability is real, and where you are known by men who are walking the same path.

If you've been leading alone, it's time to change that. Learn about CBMC offerings for business leaders at: https://events.cbmc.com/HuntValley-TAF-Info-260603

Most men won't say it out loud.
But somewhere between the early mornings, the pressure to perform, and the weight of holding everything together, the question creeps in.
Is God even paying attention?
Not a theological question. A real one. The kind you think about on the drive home when nobody's watching.
We put together a free devotional booklet called Where is God? It doesn't flinch from the hard questions. It's built for men who want honest answers, not easy ones.
Get your free copy at the link below. Then think of one guy in your world who's been carrying that same question. Send it to him. That might be the most important thing you do for him this week.

Most men are surrounded by people and still completely alone.

They lead teams. They're home for dinner. They show up every day. And almost nobody knows what they're actually carrying.

That's not a weakness problem. That's a connection problem.

Somewhere along the way, a man reached into your life and saw past the performance. He asked the hard question. He stayed when you gave him a reason to leave.

God doesn't want that to stop with you.

The workplace is full of men who are one real conversation away from something changing. CBMC equips men to be that presence for others.

What if the most important thing about you has nothing to do with your job title? At our last conference, Sean McDowell challenged men to see themselves the way Scripture does — as ambassadors for Christ in every room they walk into.

MERGE 26 exists to sharpen that vision and send men back into the workplace with it.

How do you handle it when everything goes right?

We usually talk about being tested by failure or hard times, but sometimes the biggest test of our character is actually praise. It’s easy to stay humble when things are falling apart, but what happens to your heart when the world starts clapping?

This week’s Monday Manna takes an honest look at the "test of success" and how to keep your perspective when the spotlight is on you.

Think about the man who invested in you. Who showed you what faith at work actually looks like?
Now think about who's watching you.

Bring him to MERGE 26. The conversation that starts in Columbus could change the trajectory of his life.

In the marketplace, your level of access often determines the scope of your impact. The doors you walk through, the people you’re able to reach, and the opportunities you’re entrusted with; they all shape the influence you carry.

But there’s a deeper truth. Influence is not about status; it is about stewardship. The question is not whether you have access; it is what you will do with the access you have.

Because wherever Jesus sends you, He intends to be seen.

We’re all drowning in "knowledge" and data, but how much of it actually turns into wisdom? There’s a missing link between what we know and how we lead, and it changes everything about our decision-making.
