To be the best man we can become requires we are bound together to with other brothers in our life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THE RITE OF PASSAGE restores this foundation of men in our homes, families, communities and our culture by re-igniting the generational role and responsibilities  that is written in the heart of a man. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THE RITE OF PASSAGE brings us together again in a brotherhood across generational lines and uniting us together to build the next generation of men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ceremony, Resources, and Tools offered here are intended to be the flint and the stone which provides the spark to re-ignite the fire in your heart, the hearts of the men who participate, and most importantly the hearts of the next generation who, through the men in his life, experience their passage into manhood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Heart of a Man was born from my heart 20 years ago.
