I went back and looked at the 7 promises; none of them are new or unbiblical. I suppose my real concern is that a big organization with Stadium size regular meetings is required for christian men to be informed and encouraged to do what the bible already instructs them to do. One would think that the Bible, taught by the local church, with inspiration provided by the Holy Spirit should be enough.

It should be but the church has failed in (part of) it's mission to encourage men. We are to be accountable to each other but we seldom are.

Promise keepers and other men's movements give us a way to recapture that accountability in a non-threatening environment
