Everything You Need
To Know.

What is a men's group?+
A men's group is a space centered around growth, accountability, challenge, support, and brotherhood. It is a place for a man to strengthen his masculinity, face himself and his fears, develop bonds through brotherhood, and be held accountable to becoming the man he wants to be.
Is this a men's accountability group?+
Yes, this is an online men's accountability group. It's for Christian men or men who have traditional values. It's for men who want to become better men, husbands, fathers and leaders. Men get accountability with the things that matter most: making habit changes, overcoming vices like pornography, and making positive changes to their lifestyle. The groups are a powerful blend of group work and 1:1 mentorship with Brendan directly.
Who are the groups for?+
Men only. You must be at least 21. The average age of our members is 30–35, though at any given time we have men from 21–65 in the Brotherhood. The culture upholds the value of marriage, family, and traditional masculinity. Most members are Christian. All of them have a deep respect for traditional values. You do not need to be a Christian to join.
Is this a Christian men's group?+
Most of our members are Christian, and we hold to traditional values around marriage, family, and masculinity. Many men join to grow in the faith. You don't have to be Christian to join, but you do need to respect the values that the Brotherhood stands for.
Do you have an Orthodox Christian men's group?+
Brendan is Orthodox Christian. The Brotherhood itself is not exclusively Orthodox, and welcomes Christian men from any tradition along with men who respect a traditional, faith-informed approach to masculinity. Orthodox men in particular often find the emphasis on discipline, brotherhood, and spiritual formation resonates deeply.
How long does it run?+
The Brotherhood runs indefinitely. There is no set end point. It is a month-to-month commitment and you can leave at any time. That said, most men stay well beyond 12 months, not because they have to, but because what is available here is genuinely hard to find anywhere else. We have men who have been in the Brotherhood for over three years.
Is there a cost?+
Yes. The Brotherhood membership covers a weekly 1:1 mentorship call with Brendan, a weekly men's group session, and more. One week in the Brotherhood costs less than a single therapy session, and it comes with two highly structured touchpoints instead of just one. We strive to keep the Brotherhood as affordably and accessibly priced as possible. Book a call to find out more.
Do I have to attend every week?+
Yes. Your schedule must allow for regular weekly attendance. The only acceptable reasons to miss a meeting are sickness, vacation, unexpected work, or a family emergency. These are not drop-in groups. The weekly rhythm is what makes the Brotherhood work.
Can you build real friendships online?+
Yes, men are consistently surprised at how quickly bonds form. Many men leave the Brotherhood with lifelong friendships. There are also ample opportunities for meetups and in-person connection. The depth of what happens in these groups creates bonds that go far beyond what most men experience in daily life.
What happens in a typical meeting?+
Men check in about their previous week, then there is time for deeper sharing around anything a man needs support or feedback on. Brendan will occasionally take the group through a process or exercise. Meetings conclude with each man sharing what he is committed to in the week ahead. Men's group is an experiential process: it cannot be reduced to a description. Come and see for yourself.
Does this serve as coaching for husbands?+
Marriage is one of the central themes of the Brotherhood. Men bring real struggles from their marriages into the group every week, and get direct, honest feedback, not vague encouragement. Married men get concentrated, individual support alongside the group, focused specifically on helping men become better husbands.
Is this mentorship for fathers?+
More than half of our members at any given time are fathers. Many members join specifically to become more present, engaged, and intentional fathers, and the weekly rhythm of accountability carries directly into how a man shows up at home. Brendan speaks regularly to fatherhood from his own experience of a father of three.
Is this a course or a program?+
No. The Brotherhood is not a 12-week course, a passive learning environment, or a feel-good small group. It is a living, breathing tribe of men committed to becoming better husbands, fathers, leaders, and men of God. It is structured, rigorous, relational, and proven.
Why join rather than a free group?+
Free groups lack the level of commitment and accountability that drives real results. The financial commitment is part of what keeps men showing up and taking the work seriously. Our groups have become a launching pad for men to achieve success in every area of their lives, and that does not happen in a passive, free environment.
