Our philosophy is founded on the following beliefs:

• Every man is a Beloved Son of God.

• Men are capable of serious spiritual journeys.

• Our message is grounded in the Judeo-Christian Tradition while integrating the symbols and rituals from other religions and wisdom cultures.

• Men must seek transformation through a power greater than themselves.

• Men must have the affirmation and guidance of wise mentors.

• Men have a need and responsibility to mentor future generations.

• There is a universal message of love and faith that transcends the boundaries of race, nation, culture, gender, economics/class, politics, sexual orientation and religious differences.

• Men must seek honest mutuality in their relationships with women in thought, word and deed.

• Men must recognize and critique their own power with regard to women, minorities and the poor, and use their power for justice in the world.

• There is a need for collaborating with like-minded groups and other faith traditions.
