Men’s Advance! begins with an 8pm Friday chapel and ends with a delicious Saturday dinner. This is the perfect spring weekend format! Church men’s groups can use Camp Lebanon’s annual Men’s Advance! to challenge men in their walk with Christ. The intensive Bible study is life relevant and goes deeper with small group follow-up discussions. There’s also time for fun with laser tag, wiffleball, foosball, pool, pingpong, carpetball, power sleeping, and more! Men’s Advance! is a retreat designed to encourage men both in their walk with Christ and in fellowship with other Christian men.
Enjoy three inspiring sessions, an “Anything Goes” Q & A,” and three delicious meals, plus great fellowship and small group sharing. There are also plenty of recreational options, including pool, Pickleball, ping-pong, 9-Square, campfires, foosball, carpetball, Octoball, hiking, and laser tag (weather permitting). And don’t forget the ice cream sundaes! The Stayover Option is program-free, with an 8:30 AM Sunday breakfast.
Come learn how to lead through humility by looking at Jesus’ mold, method, and mindset in Philippians 2. Though fully God, Jesus chose to take on the role of a servant, showing that real strength comes from putting others first and staying faithful to God’s purpose (Philippians 2:5-8). In our work, families, and churches, this kind of leadership builds trust, strengthens relationships, and creates lasting impact. It’s not about power or recognition but about leading with integrity, selflessness, and a focus on what truly matters. Join us at Camp as we study this together and learn how to lead with strength shaped by humility.
