“What’s a man to do?”

The Job Description of a Man

Men like to get things done, but the question is, what should we be doing as Christian men? The answer becomes clear when we fully understand and embrace the wonderful, unique identity and responsibility God has given to us as men. That will be the focus of our time together where you will hear teaching from Keith and have time for small group discussion with your own church group*. Come away with a clear vision and steps to take in your life, home, workplace, church and community to do that which God has given you to do.

Speaker Profile

Keith Ogorek

Keith Ogorek, president of the Author Learning Center (part of the Author Solutions LLC group, a global publishing company based in the US), brings a unique perspective to communications, having worked simultaneously in ministry and the marketplace for virtually his whole career. Using his previous experience as a marketing and communications professional in bank marketing, at a global ad agency, and at the world’s leading self-publishing company, he has worked with a number of ministries to vastly improve their communication and development efforts by crafting a message that is compelling, differentiating, and true. In addition to pursuing excellence in the marketplace, Keith is passionate about men’s discipleship and has led multiple men’s groups through a two-year discipleship process at his local church. His book A Clear View, which addresses how a person’s worldview is formed, is used in various schools and training programs. When his schedule allows, Keith speaks at conferences on the topic of marketing communications for ministries, as well as at men’s retreats and family camps.
