Real men. Real transformation.
The men who
went first
Two senses
Pulled out.
Sent back in.
Pulled out
Jesus does the saving. A firebrand is a stick snatched out of the fire (Amos 4:11, Zechariah 3:2): a man God pulled out of what was burning him.
Sent back in
Then he’s trained. Mentorship, brotherhood and the Intensive equip a man to carry it home, to work, and to the men beside him.
Jesus transforms.
Firebrand equips.
You’re in the right place if…
- You believe in Jesus, but you’re tired of staying stuck in the same cycles.
- You’re done managing sin and ready to actually kill it.
- You know God has called you to more, but you haven’t had structure or brotherhood to walk it out.
This is not for you if…
- You want to stay comfortable and unchanged.
- You want grace without repentance or freedom without obedience.
- You’re looking for a quick emotional fix instead of real formation.
Ways to work together
Choose your
level.
Different men are at different stages. What doesn’t change is the standard.
Level 01
Group Mentorship
Brotherhood & Foundation
For the man who knows he needs change and is ready to stop doing life alone. You want structure. You want brotherhood. You want to grow.
Level 02
1-on-1 Mentorship
Proximity & Acceleration
For the man who is serious and hungry for change. You don’t want distance. You want proximity. You’re willing to sacrifice to see real revival in your life.
Level 03
Business Mentorship
Kingdom Growth & Marketplace
For the man with a business who knows God is calling him to more than hustle. You want clarity. You want order. You want to build it His way.
Every month
The Firebrand Intensive
3 days in person · Paradise Valley, AZ
A summit for men who want more: confront the man in the mirror, be set free, and be activated, filled and sent. Free to apply; approval required.
How men are trained
The FIRE
Framework
Four parts, in order. Faith comes first, because everything else is built on it.
Faith as the foundation
A living relationship with Jesus Christ that every thought, decision and action flows from.
Identity anchored in Christ
Knowing who you are in Christ: a son, a warrior, a leader, a protector.
Resilience to endure and overcome
The grit to keep standing when the heat rises, forged through trials.
Execution that turns discipline into action
Bold action taken daily: not talk, not theory.
Meet Justin
Going after
the men he
used to be.
Justin Dewing founded Firebrand Initiative. On a mountaintop in 2017, Jesus set him free. He sold his business to do this full-time.
He reads every application himself, leads every Intensive, and mentors men in all three levels. He’s been where they are.
The process
What happens
when you apply.
Simple. Honest. No pressure. Here’s exactly what to expect after you hit submit.
- Answer a few questions
- Justin reviews it personally
- A clear next step
What is Firebrand Initiative?
Firebrand Initiative is a Christ-centered mentorship and discipleship movement for men, based in Mesa, Arizona, and founded by Justin Dewing. It trains men spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally through three levels of mentorship, the monthly Firebrand Intensive in Paradise Valley, Arizona, and a free online community. Jesus transforms. Firebrand equips.
Who is Firebrand for?
Christian men who believe in Jesus but are tired of staying stuck in the same cycles: men who want real structure, brotherhood and accountability, and are willing to be challenged and corrected. It isn’t for the man who wants to stay comfortable, or who wants grace without repentance.
How much does Firebrand mentorship cost?
Prices aren’t listed. Applying is free. Justin Dewing reads every application himself, and if he believes he can genuinely help, he sends clear direction, options and straightforward pricing for the level that fits.
How much does the Firebrand Intensive cost?
It costs nothing to apply. Every application is reviewed; approved men are sent the acceptance fee to confirm their seat. Lodging, meals and every session are included.
Is Firebrand counseling or therapy?
No. Firebrand is Christian mentorship and discipleship, not licensed counseling. The Intensive application asks whether you’re in counseling, a recovery program or a discipleship relationship. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 in the US.
