A two-year journey for men
What’s your Egypt?
Freed men free men.
What’s controlling you, or keeping you from becoming the man you’re called to be? Leaving Egypt is built to help you name it, leave it, and build something in its place — across Faith, Family, Fitness and Finance.
Four experiences. Two years. One mission.
02 · The big idea
More than a weekend
Leaving Egypt moves a man from personal freedom to intentional leadership, and finally to multiplication. It is one journey with five movements, not four events on a calendar.
- LeaveName what holds you
- SurrenderPut it down for good
- BuildConstruct the life
- ReturnGo back for one
- MultiplyFree other men
Get out. Grow up. Go back.
The end goal is not self-improvement. It is multiplication.
03 · Foundation
The four pillars
One system, four areas of life. They are carried together, in this order, for the whole two years — because no one of them can stand in for another.
Family
Lead intentionally as a husband, father, son, brother and friend.
- Marriage
- Fatherhood
- Presence
Fitness
Build the physical and mental discipline required to lead well.
- Training
- Recovery
- Discipline
Finance
Become a responsible steward, provider, builder and leader.
- Stewardship
- Plan
- Generosity

05 · The experiences
Four experiences
Each one asks a different question, and each one has to be answered before the next makes any sense.
Level 1 · Month 0
Leaving Egypt
What’s your Egypt?
Three different doors. One shared mission: wake the man up and challenge him to leave.
3 DaysLeave → Level 2 · Month 4The Altar
Something has to die here.
A man can physically leave Egypt while still carrying Egypt inside him.
5 DaysSurrender → Level 3 · Month 10The Promised Land
Stop wandering. Start building.
Leaving something bad is not enough. A man needs somewhere to go.
5 DaysBuild → Level 4 · Month 20The Commission
It’s not about you anymore.
Until now the questions have been about you. Here the focus turns outward.
5 DaysReturn →06 · Between the events
The gap is the point
The longest stretch of this journey is the part with no event in it. That is deliberate. The emotional experience must become daily discipline.
40
The 40
Forty days of intentional living, immediately after Level 1. Faith, Family, Fitness and Finance, worked daily — with a battle buddy, so men do not disappear after the event.
What are you doing about it?
9
The Walk
Months 11 through 19. Nine months to prove the Land Map through consistency: monthly accountability across all four pillars, marriage and family challenges, service, and measurable progress.
Are you living what you said you would live?
The emotional experience must become daily discipline.
07 · Multiplication
Outposts
An Outpost is a church-based or community-based men’s group led by an approved Leaving Egypt Guide. It is how one freed man becomes many.
- Church
- Outpost
- Level 1
- The Altar
- Promised Land
- Commission
- Guide
- New Outpost
The doorway, not the destination
Guides receive selected, approved content that introduces Leaving Egypt principles and creates hunger for the complete live journey. The deepest experiences remain exclusive to official Leaving Egypt events.
A Guide is never above the men he leads. The ground is always level.
Earned, not purchased
Each stage can carry a physical symbol that is earned rather than bought — a broken chain for Level 1, a symbol of surrender at The Altar, the completed Land Map and Covenant, a challenge coin at The Commission, and a distinctive identifier for a Guide.
Every symbol says the same four things: where I’ve been, what I committed to, who I’m becoming, and who’s coming behind me.
The Outpost is the doorway — not the destination.
08 · The language
Five questions
These are the questions a man carries through two years. They are asked in this order, and each one gets harder to avoid than the last.
What’s your Egypt?
What’s controlling you or keeping you from becoming the man you’re called to be?
What’s on your altar?
What are you refusing to surrender?
Are you wandering?
Have you left the old life without intentionally building the new one?
What’s your Promised Land?
What has God called you to build?
Who’s your one?
Who are you going back for?
09 · Standards
Advancement is earned
Leaving Egypt should never become four retreats a man simply purchases. Attendance alone does not automatically qualify a man for the next stage.
- Before The Altar
Engage with The 40 and stay in accountability.
- Before The Promised Land
Demonstrate action on the commitments made at The Altar.
- Before The Commission
Spend meaningful time actually living the Land Map.
- Before becoming a Guide
Demonstrate character, humility, commitment, teachability and responsible leadership.
10 · The investment
Four experiences. Two years. One mission.
Eighteen days of live experience across two years, and twenty-four months of accountability between them. This is not four retreats. It is one intentional journey from freedom to multiplication.
What the journey includes
- Level 1 — three days, and the door that fits where you are
- The 40 — forty days of daily discipline with a battle buddy
- The Altar — five days, and the months of living it out that follow
- The Promised Land — five days, and your written Land Map
- The Commission — five days, then the Guide Residency
Accessible by design
A transformational men’s journey shouldn’t be limited to the few who can afford it. Leaving Egypt is priced deliberately to put a two-year journey within reach of more men — and to equip the ones who finish to go back to their own churches and build others.
We’d rather talk it through with you than put a number on a page. Tell us where you are, and we’ll tell you exactly what it costs.

Who’s your one?
Freedom creates responsibility. If you already know the answer, that’s usually the sign you’re ready to start.
