The Forge at Smith Corner Church is a community where men gather to strengthen their faith, build lasting friendships, and grow in spiritual maturity. In a world where loneliness and stress are at an all-time high, studies show that nearly 1 in 3 men feel isolated, and men who lack strong social connections are at a 50% higher risk of depression. Sadly, only 40% of men report being truly happy.
At The Forge, we believe that as iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17), so one man sharpens another. Through authentic fellowship, practical Bible studies, and shared challenges, we cultivate resilience, purpose, and a sense of belonging. Whether it’s bonding over a round of golf, sharing stories from a hunting trip, tackling a hiking trail, lifting weights at the gym, or diving into Bible studies that help us to walk the Christian walk and sharpen each other’s faith, The Forge is where faith meets friendship and men grow stronger together.
