First, to bring Christian men together to strengthen and encourage one another through worship, teaching, and prayer.
Second, to have some fun through team challenges and friendly competition.
our purpose is twofold:
At ManUp, we’re seeking Jesus together as men—growing in faith, building brotherhood, and competing like a bunch of kids at summer camp.
Topics will focus on fatherhood, sonship, and the daily challenges of living as a man of God.
The games will range from dodgeball and kickball to tug of war—and more… including a two-mile team challenge to kick things off!

For men ages 35-60*
*Camp attendees should expect a physically active schedule for the duration of the camp
ManUp Camp is designed to engage your body, mind, and spirit.
Participate in a variety of physically active games and activities that will challenge you, build camaraderie, and, most importantly, be a blast.
Our time together will be balanced with sessions of worship and teaching, where you'll be encouraged to grow in your relationship with Jesus. We believe that when men come together to seek God, incredible things happen.
About the team
We are a group of guys from different denominations across the state of South Carolina and Georgia who thought it’d be fun to come together as men of faith and have a blast while doing it. We are not famous Christian authors, keynote speakers, or leaders of consequence. We’re just regular Christian men made significant by our savior, and Him alone.
Christian men from all backgrounds and denominations are welcome to join us for a weekend of worship, exhortation, and various team games/activities.

David grew up in a loving Christian home and accepted Jesus at a young age. That early decision set him on the right course, but over the years, he’s learned that following Jesus is a daily choice and that dying to self doesn’t come easy. He has often fallen into the trap of passivity by not committing everything he does for the glory of God.
His greatest blessings on this earth are his wife, Mandy, and their two children, Landen (his wife Kaia) and Madelynn.
He’s both humbled and grateful to stand alongside a group of men who are pursuing authentic, Godly manhood especially in a culture that often tries to weaken or redefine it.

Del is a married father of two who maintains an active lifestyle and enjoys a full, busy family life. Raised in a Christian home, Del accepted Jesus at a young age, but his journey with Christ has never been a one-time, miraculous transformation. Instead, it’s been a winding road with ups and downs through the real challenges of life.
He has walked closely with Jesus at times; at others, he’s wrestled with selfishness, the lust of the flesh, and the need to feed his ego. He has fallen short—often—and remains completely dependent on his Savior, and on the grace and mercy of his Heavenly Father, who has relentlessly pursued him his entire life.

Brian is not the typical Christian from the South. He did not grow up in a Christian home and was far away from God’s will for the first half of his life. He sought significance and identity in partying and chasing the things of this world. Often struggling with selfishness, materialism and lust of the world, the Lord redeemed him in his mid twenties, but not without struggle. He admittedly leans on the Holy Spirit daily to guide him through every area of his life.

Bio Coming soon

Mike is one of the many Jesus has loved. He crawled out of a home riddled with hurts and hang-ups, carrying a love deficit he tried to fill for years. Then he met Father God in a way that wrecked him—in the best way.
Sadly, Mike couldn’t hold on to that love. He drifted, chasing feelings, turning men into idols and his marriage into an idol. Misery finally broke him. He wrapped his arms around his dissatisfaction and sprinted back to the Father’s love.
Every day Mike fights to keep Him first. Jesus is his deepest satisfaction. When Mike is full of Him, he is full of life.
Forty-eight years in Christ, Mike is still blazing toward eternity—running hard after the One who has chased him all these years.
It’s a love affair!
Competition Format
Each of the 5 camp leaders will be the captain of a team.
Camp attendees will be assigned to their team upon arrival. Each team will share a cabin, and compete with their team against the other 4 teams throughout the weekend.
Teams will accumulate points for their performance in each event, ultimately culminating in a winner at the conclusion of the weekend.
Although the games will be competitive, it’s important to remember that the games are meant to be played for fun and fellowship, and not for victory at all cost. Sportsmanship and a good attitude is our priority.
Oh yeah… and we want to have fun!

ManUp Camp is a call to greater intimacy with Jesus.
Don't miss this opportunity to be reminded of what it means to be a son, a brother, and a father in the light of His love.
