What is Exodus?

Short Answer: Exodus is a lifestyle for men rooted in prayer, asceticism, and fraternity. We exist to help men be uncommonly free.

Our team walks with our men toward the limitless freedom that we receive from our relationship with the Father. This freedom is a breaking away from the things of this world and, in turn, a radical encounter with the Father. Here, we discover our sonship and our identity.

The Exodus Promise: I become who I am.

Exodus is a space to learn about the deep interior of who God has made men to be. It is about making space for God to do his work. Exodus Men become rooted in their identity as sons of the heavenly Father, able and ready to stand up against the pharaohs of their life. This is a lifestyle of continually dying to self and living freely for others alongside your brothers. Becoming who we truly are is being faithful to the divinization Jesus has in mind for us.

In the Exodus lifestyle, a fraternity of 6-8 men commits to a set structure of prayer and ascetic disciplines. These men are led by daily readings from the Scriptures, paired with daily reflections, to keep them on the road to freedom.

What we are doing is nothing new in the Church. We are reviving a traditional culture of fasting and feasting as we read the scriptures and pray about what we have read. We are helping men form authentic communities. At Exodus, we are committed to becoming who we are—uncommonly free sons of the heavenly Father.
