Podcaster Jay Mountjoy is joined by Christ Led Communities Relationship Manager Mike Hatch. Mike shares his passion for spiritual formation for men and his experience of the impact of The Crucible Project on his ministry. Unlike any Christian retreat you’ve attended, The Crucible Weekend is designed to challenge you to take a hard look at what is and not working in your life. We give you the opportunity to wrestle with God and discover new truths about yourself — and embrace your God-given masculinity or femininity.
