Join a movement that encourages and equips dads in partnership with the church to be faithful fathers. Utilizing the P.A.S.S. strategy, we equip a core group of purpose-filled men to lead intentional activities, biblical studies, and heart-turning retreats that strengthen the father-child bond. It is time to pass the baton well and let the heart-turning begin in your community.
Start a Fathering Movement in Your Church
PASS the BATON Strategy
While our nation faces many challenges, the most critical is a growing fathering deficit that only the church is uniquely positioned to overcome. The PASS the BATON framework provides a comprehensive roadmap to move your congregation from awareness to action by equipping a core group of dedicated fathers.
Through intentional leadership, biblical studies, and engaging activities, this strategy reinvigorates the church and turns the hearts of fathers to their children to raise a godly generation.
The core group / lay-leadership team of men is a powerful example of dads committed to raising the bar for fathering, individually and corporately.
Their journey shows how the PASS the BATON strategy can invigorate a church’s mission for the next generation. Bring this same transformation to your congregation — invite Rick Wertz to speak and help you launch your own fathering movement.
Mike Avery Testimony
Even as a full-time pastor, Mike Avery realized he was living life on ‘autopilot’ when it came to being a dad. He initially felt he didn’t have time for another ministry, but one conversation about Faithful Fathering inspired him to re-evaluate his most important role at home.
Through a core group of dads, Mike found the encouragement and prayer needed to move from autopilot to intentional teaching moments with his children. Join Mike and other leaders in raising the bar — invite Rick Wertz to help you start a fathering movement in your church today.
