Everyone knows that Africa—with all of its power, resources, and beauty—is a mess. Deep inside, they also know that the "Elephant in the Living Room" that few are willing to admit, is that the mess of human suffering, corruption, lies—even the increasing violence within the families—are caused at the hands of broken men.

And based on the too common, absent, distant, harsh, and austere behavior sculpted by primeval cultural codes that turn a "manly father" away from his children. Today's African man often carries the unhealed wounds of rejection into adulthood. And dozens of modern mega-studies on every continent deliver the same conclusion: Fatherless boys grieve and become angry and ashamed. Then they go violent. They mature without a compass, without an identity or a purpose.

With girls, the impact of the father-wound from violent, distant, or missing fathers untethers their security, and drives her into the comforting arms of an unprepared boy, escalating teen pregnancies to fill their fantasy of motherhood. The saga of sorrow and depression marks many adult women who live a life of unmet needs, and depression.

Our program focuses where no one else has dared: FIRST, redeem and free the broken man (perpetrator), and turn his heart into a protector and provider. Our three-semester journey equips and transforms each man into a Warrior—who faces his fears, receives a new start, and embraces his God-given identity, role, and purpose under Heaven and attacks poverty at its roots through our Holistic wealth creation modules. The Priest follows as he embraces the power of servant leadership, putting his family before himself—loving his wife and nurturing and teaching his children for their future success.
