The Hammer & Anvil Society
A discipleship fellowship helping Christian men build a strong biblical worldview
+1 more

The Hammer and Anvil Society is a discipleship fellowship for Christian men led by Joel Settecase, founder of The Think Institute. It exists for men who want more than casual faith, a place to build a serious, biblical worldview, sharpen how they think, and grow as husbands, fathers, and leaders in their homes and churches.
Over a six-month program, members join a small cohort for twice-monthly meetings, work through guided reading and practical challenges, and take the Working Genius assessment to understand how they are wired to lead. Graduates finish with a real foundation in biblical worldview and apologetics, and the option to help launch future cohorts in their own communities.
