Men of Valor and Prayer (MVP)

At HCC, men are valuable to us... more importantly, they are extremely valuable to God!
We are praying for God to develop Men of Harvest into MVP’s... Men of Valor and Prayer! Come & join in what God is doing!
We host a variety of M.V.P. gatherings designed to develop men into fully devoted followers of Christ.

3 FOLD CORDS - According to Howard Hendricks: 

"Every man needs to have distinct individuals in his life:
     Paul - an older man who is willing to build into your life
     Barnabas - someone who loves you, but is not impressed with you
     Timothy - a younger man into whose life you're building yours."

5 TYPES OF MEN - According to Patrick Morley...

• Unbelieving Men - seekers, lookers, investigators
• Cultural Christians - men "on the fringe"
• Disciples (or men who want to be)
• Leaders (or men who want to be)
• Hurting Men - with "broken wings"
