Return to What Matters Most

Back to the Father
This is space for men who lead to quiet the noise, encounter God, and realign their identity before returning to what they carry. Because what you carry flows from who you become.

About

The Intensive

The Awakening Primer is a one-day interruption for men who carry weight.

Men who lead businesses, lead families, and make decisions that affect others — yet know they don’t want to drift, numb out, or keep performing spiritually.

This is not a conference.
It’s not content-heavy.
It’s not about fixing yourself.

It’s a day to slow down, get quiet before the Father, and experience the heart of Iron Deep.

For one focused day, we step out of noise and back into presence.

What This Day Is About

Identity before activity
Returning to who you are in Christ before what you build or lead.

Radical honesty
No posturing. No impressing. Just real men telling the truth.

Worship and listening
Space to worship freely and hear what God is saying.

Brotherhood
Time with men who understand responsibility and refuse to walk alone.

This day is about recalibrating your heart with God.

Not through hype.
Not through performance.
But through presence.

Phone Posture

We strongly encourage phones to be powered off for the day.

This is a small but intentional act, choosing presence over productivity.

If you must use your phone, please do so privately and briefly, out of respect for the space and the other men.

Who is this for?

This intensive is for:

  • Business owners and leaders
  • Men who carry responsibility for others
  • Men who are outwardly capable but inwardly hungry
  • Men who want depth, not noise
  • Men who want to pursue Jesus without distraction

You’ll experience the culture and rhythm of Iron Deep and have space to discern whether this brotherhood is something the Lord may be inviting you into.

How is it designed?

This experience is intentionally designed to remove noise and create space.

Space to slow down.
Space to listen.
Space to encounter God.

Through worship, brotherhood, solitude, time in nature, and honest teaching, we create room to hear from God and rediscover your identity in Christ.

Why should you apply?

Because success without depth is empty.

Because leadership without brotherhood is heavy.

Because God cares more about who you are becoming than what you are building.

If that resonates, this may be your next step.
