Restore families
One to four days, in person, city by city. The length changes; the purpose and the outcome stay the same. Men come in carrying everything and leave with a plan, a brotherhood and a calling.
Launching Pad is an in person transformational event for Christian men, led by NFL Super Bowl champion Steve Weatherford. A Launching Pad runs anywhere from one to four days, depending on the city, and the purpose and the outcome are the same every time: men are activated physically, mentally and spiritually and leave with a clear plan and a brotherhood. It is free to attend and seats are limited. Through Launching Pad the ministry aims to see 50,000 families restored and healed: marriages healed, fathers restored to their children, and families brought back from the brink.

Request a Launching PadWhat to expect
The Launching Pad is a high impact experience built around three pillars of development. It takes men through a powerful process, physically, mentally, and spiritually, designed to activate your God given identity and set your life on an intentional course toward freedom and purpose.

Start the day with an early morning challenge designed to push you beyond your comfort zone and ignite the fire within. Bring your best.

Deep sessions on identity, purpose, and leadership. Challenge the lies you've believed about yourself and step into the truth of who God says you are.

Encounter the presence of God through worship, prayer, and the Word. Leave with clarity, direction, and a renewed covenant with your Creator.
