Why "The 22:30 Men"

Why I Created 22:30 Men

In Ezekiel 22:30, God speaks with devastating clarity:

"And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none."

That verse broke something open in me.

God wasn’t looking for a movement. He wasn’t calling for the masses. He was looking for one man—one man bold enough to take responsibility, broken enough to weep, and surrendered enough to stand between judgment and mercy. One man who would pray like Moses and say, “Lord, have mercy.” One man who would carry the weight of his people in intercession and action.

But in Ezekiel’s time, He found none.

That same silence is echoing in our generation. Men everywhere are drifting—passive, distracted, present in body but absent in spirit. Churches are filled with attendees, but not enough intercessors. Families are led by good intentions instead of godly conviction. We don’t need better programs—we need burning hearts.

That’s why I created 22:30 Men.

Not to build a brand or gather a following. But to cry out for revival—the kind that begins in the hearts of men who are fully surrendered to God.

A Generation That Burns

Revival starts with men who are done playing church and ready to be the Church. Men who will lay down their lives—not only in their homes —but in the local, visible body of believers that God knits them into.

You can’t love Jesus and ignore His bride.
You can’t claim surrender and avoid His people.

Jesus made it clear in John 13:34–35:

“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

This love is not sentimental. It’s sacrificial.
It’s not virtual. It’s visible—played out in real relationships within the Church God places you in.

If we won’t lay down our lives for one another, we are not living surrendered.
If we cannot love the people in front of us, we cannot claim to love the One who sent us. This is how He designed it.

22:30 Men exists to call men back to that truth: that loving Jesus means loving His people, and that revival always starts in the house of God.

Discipleship That Multiplies

We’re building a place where discipleship is more than a buzzword—it’s a battle plan. Real, raw, life-on-life sharpening. Men walking with men, teaching each other how to walk with God, to hear His voice, to obey His commands, and to lead their homes with clarity and courage.

22:30 Men is a resource hub for disciple-makers. Whether you’re just learning how to lead, or you’ve been pouring into men for years, this is a space to grow deeper, stay on fire, and multiply what God is doing in you.

Because discipleship is how fire spreads.

A Brotherhood Forged in Fire

This is not a solo journey. God didn’t design us to walk this road alone. He calls us into a brotherhood—a band of men who link arms, sharpen each other, and carry one another’s burdens.

The world says masculinity is toxic. God says it's necessary. But it must be redeemed. And that redemption happens in community—with truth, love, and accountability as the foundation.

22:30 Men is where that brotherhood is forged. Not in comfort, but in commitment. Not in hype, but in holiness.


So Why 22:30 Men?

Because God is still looking.

He’s still seeking for men who will stand in the gap—in prayer, in leadership, in intercession, in obedience. Men who will rise up in this generation and say:

“Here I am. Send me. I will stand. I will weep. I will build. I will love.”

This is about revival.
This is about brotherhood.
This is about discipleship that multiplies and a Church that burns with the love of Jesus.

This is 22:30 Men.
