Men from across the Northern California Conference gathered recently for the NCC Christian Men’s Retreat, centered on the theme “All In, Men.” Speaker Marty Miller invited participants to reflect on what full commitment to God looks like in everyday life—at home, in the church, and in the wider community.
Throughout the weekend, men worshiped together, participated in seminars, and engaged in conversations focused on practical, Bible-based discipleship and Christian character. The message of wholehearted commitment was echoed by Rudy Peters, NCC African American Ministries Coordinator, who shared, “‘All-in men’ are ordinary men who have made an extraordinary decision—to give God their whole heart, their full devotion, and their unwavering commitment.”
Time was also set aside for fellowship and connection, as attendees shared meals, built new relationships, and encouraged one another in their spiritual journeys. The retreat provided a steady rhythm of worship, learning, and conversation designed to support reflection and renewal.
Through gatherings like this annual retreat, the NCC Men’s Ministries Department continues to support men in growing as disciples and serving faithfully in their homes, churches, and communities.
