About
Fellowship of the Fervent (“FoF”) is a Christian men’s ministry that serves the community by building up, connecting, and mobilizing men and men’s ministries for the expansion of God’s kingdom.
We provide a safe space for fellowship, encouragement, biblical teaching, life-on-life discipleship, and fervent prayer.
We meet in person every Saturday morning at 7am at one of three Panera Bread locations in the Atlanta metro. We also gather for special events and 2–3 conferences each year.
Our prayer is to be a place where men and men’s ministries can connect, share, collaborate, and grow in Christ.
