Top Gun Basic Training

Created by Steve Sonderman,  Elmbrook Church

As stated in the Basic Training Manual, In A.D. 33 Jesus Christ commissioned 12 men to go into the world and be difference makers, to make disciples of all the nations.

Our being here today is proof that they did not fail! However, recently we have experienced a crisis which could hinder the expansion of God's Kingdom.

It is a leadership crisis!

Immorality, burnout, nominalism, and materialism have all created a black hole of leadership in the church today. It is therefore necessary to return to the "Master's Plan" of discipleship.

Working with a small group of men, ensured that there was not only skill training, but righteousness training as well.
The Basic Training uses the "Master Plan" to encourage and equip men, based on sound Biblical principles, to be godly leaders in their home, workplace, church, and community.

Through this small group experience, a man can expect to:

• Develop a consistent walk with the Lord
• Build lasting relationships with other men
• Find his place of service within the church
• Learn to make an impact for the Kingdom
