Mission
Great Guys is a free men’s community founded to help men awaken and set free the Great Guy within.
As mentors through education, and experiential growth, Great Guys seeks to promote domestic unity and help prevent the abuse, neglect, and abandonment of domestic disturbance (violence, breakups, divorce, foster care).
Because:
All too often men find themselves stifled and stuck in life-long self-sabotaging habits
Reactions, instead of working for them, are sabotaging their best intentions.
Frustrated, depressed and more and more isolated they ask themselves: “Is this all there is?”
Unresolved grief and anger permeates their lives sucking away any hope for happiness.
We:
Weekly meet in small groups to review and practice the week’s lesson and exercises.
Daily practice choosing loving kindness over justice.
Uphold wholeness, oneness, goodness, and individual dignity for all without regard to race, religion, gender, or nationality.
Are all in this together.
“Africans have a thing called ubuntu. We believe that a person is a person through other persons. That my humanity is caught up, bound up, inextricably, with yours. When I dehumanize you, I dehumanize myself. The solitary human being is a contradiction in terms. Therefore you seek to work for the common good because your humanity comes into its own in community, in belonging.”
