A MOVE OF GOD IN THE MILITARY.

Our military is facing a battle that cannot be ignored.
Today, a soldier is nine times more likely to die by suicide than in combat. The need is urgent, and the message of Jesus Christ is transforming lives across our Armed Forces.
In just three years, Engage Your Destiny has seen more than 7,100 service members surrender their lives to Christ. More than 16,000 service members and family members have stepped into discipleship, biblical community, and lasting spiritual growth.
We are now active on 10 military bases, with new doors continuing to open.
Founders Weekend gathers influential business leaders, pastors, philanthropists, and Kingdom-minded warriors who are ready to put their faith, resources, and leadership behind a move of God in the United States military.

WHY NOW?
Our military is carrying a battle most Americans never see.
Service members face immense pressure, isolation, spiritual fatigue, and questions of identity that often continue long after the uniform comes off. Families feel the weight. Leaders carry responsibilities few people fully understand. Too many warriors are navigating these challenges alone.
Through the faith, generosity, and conviction of leaders like you, Engage Your Destiny is bringing biblical truth, trusted brotherhood, and spiritual resilience directly to those serving our nation.
The mission is expanding, and the need continues to grow.
Founder’s Weekend brings together a select group of leaders committed to strengthening this work across the military and helping carry the mission forward.
Over the course of three days, relationships will deepen, strategic conversations will take shape, and you will gain a firsthand understanding of what takes place on base.
All it takes is your yes.
