C3 Men!
Come join us for the C3 Men’s Retreat 2026, September 18-20, at Redwood Christian Park (RCP) for a weekend of transformational teaching and discussion, fellowship, and fun!
The title of this year’s retreat is Replication: A Culture of Discipleship.
In 2 Timothy 2:2, the Apostle Paul describes the fundamental Culture of Discipleship, “You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy people who will be able to pass them on to others. (NLT)” Each of us, as a disciple of Jesus, is called to embody the gospel so that we can help others to do the same, who can then go and help others to do the same. This is disciple replication.
You may be wondering how you can be an effective player in this Culture of Discipleship. Come to the retreat to hear our guest speaker, Pastor Jeff Harris, explain that this Culture of Discipleship consists of three elements: Engage, Equip, and Empower. “God desires to engage your heart so you can truly engage those around you. He longs to equip you so you can equip others on their journey. And He empowers you through His Spirit so you can empower others to multiply the gospel.” No matter where you are in your faith journey, you are welcome and encouraged to join us.
We are excited to welcome Pastor Jeff Harris as our retreat speaker. Jeff has served as a pastor for more than 30 years, including over 20 years as a Senior Pastor right here in the Bay Area. He has always been passionate about calling men to rise up and become catalysts for change in their families and communities. Jeff is thrilled to speak on the topic of discipleship at our retreat. This focus deeply connects with his heart for men in today’s world. He firmly believes God is calling us to go and make disciples, and he is looking forward to our time together. Jeff currently serves as Church Connections Director for Fellowship of Christian Athletes in South Denver. He is married to his wife, Jodi, and is the proud father of three grown sons: Ethan, Benjamin, and Zachary.
