Start here
Boys of Faith Devo is a supplementary resource. It doesn’t replace Sunday, your church or your small group. It’s here to help students keep reading the Bible during the week, after Sunday.
1What it is
Two short readings a week, tied to what our group talks about on Sundays. Each one has a passage, a little context, one question and one thing to try. About five minutes.
A four-year path from freshman to senior year. More on it below.
Past weeks stay up, so it’s easy to catch up.
Why it’s built this way
The site is designed to engage students. Streaks, Scroll view and the patches students earn in Basecamp make it easy to come back to on a phone. Each reading adds a little context, simple explanation and one thing to try, so Scripture feels practical. The goal is to develop students who can read the Bible on their own one day.
2Basecamp
Basecamp gives guys material that fits the stage and season they’re in, one year at a time: Known, Rooted, Becoming and Sent. Along the way it casts a vision for belonging, first to Jesus and then to a community of brothers who walk with each other. Each year has a few stops to do together as a group and a few to do on your own.
3Pointing students back to church
The site actively challenges students to take part in their local church. Basecamp asks them to show up, serve at church, sit with the guy who’s new, talk with older believers and look out for younger guys. As seniors, it asks them to find a church wherever they head next.
The weekly readings are tied to what our group talks about on Sundays, so they help Sunday keep going through the week.
