Steve Chavis Quotations

We're pretty geared up for the conference. We try to produce the state-of-the-art men's ministry weekend.

There are lots of guys out there who have never experienced this kind of spiritual infusion or excitement.

The mythology was, by going great guns the way it was going, we'd reach every man in the country and we'd finish the job. The fact is, encouraging men spiritually was a much bigger systemic cultural nut to crack. Now that we're smaller, what kind of impact can we make? I think we're going after a deeper conference experience so the Friday night, all-day Saturday experience is hopefully more profound and had more impact.

It's so hard that it takes hundreds of volunteers and a few dozen staff to host 10,000 or 15,000 men. Putting on the arena events costs in the hundreds of thousands. It's the constant effort to cut costs and not let it show.
