WHO WE ARE
Driven by a God-Sized Mission
Statesman's Forum exists to evangelize, disciple, and sharpen men who carry the weight of leadership—public servants, business leaders, husbands, fathers, and men called to influence their families and communities for Christ.
We believe men need more than strategy and skill. They need wisdom, accountability, biblical truth, and a brotherhood that refuses to let them drift.
"The Statesman's Forum exists for any man who is serious about his faith and his purpose — who is ready to stop drifting, start answering, and become the man God always intended him to be."
— Gregory E. Markomanolakis, Founder
OUR MISSION
"The Statesman's Forum reaches men with the gospel, roots them in their God-given identity, and releases them to impact their families, communities, and nation for Christ."
OUR VISION
"The Statesman's Forum envisions a national movement of transformed men — reached by the gospel, rooted in their calling, and released to disciple future generations who will lead with biblical truth, courage, and integrity across America."
OUR DISTINCTIVE
Reach • Root • Release • Reproduce
Four words. One movement. One lifelong mission. The Statesman's Forum exists to reach men with the Gospel, root them in biblical truth, release them into their God-given calling, and reproduce disciple-makers who will do the same for generations to come.
01
REACH
Lead men to Christ. Evangelism draws men to the gospel of Jesus Christ. We go where men are and proclaim the good news with boldness, compassion, and the hope that every life can be transformed through Him.
02
ROOT
Ground men in biblical truth. Discipleship establishes men in their God-given identity, spiritual gifts, and calling through our three-phase biblical curriculum. Strong roots produce faithful men who stand firm in every season of life.
03
RELEASE
Equip men for their God-given calling. Through biblical mentoring and practical leadership, we prepare men to faithfully lead their families, serve their churches, influence their workplaces, and impact their communities for Christ.
04
REPRODUCE
Multiply disciple-makers. Every man who is reached, rooted, and released is called to invest in others. As faithful men mentor the next generation, the mission multiplies from one life to another, one brotherhood to another, and one generation to the next.
THE OUTCOME
Every Released Man Becomes A Reproducer
The goal of discipleship is not simply personal growth—it is multiplication. When a Statesman has been reached by the Gospel, rooted in biblical truth, and released into his God-given calling, he is commissioned to reproduce that same journey in another man.
"What you have heard from me... entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also."
— 2 Timothy 2:2
This is how movements grow. One man becomes two. Two become twelve. Twelve become generations.

Changes Everything
BROTHERHOOD
Brotherhood isn't a weekly meeting. It's a lifelong commitment to becoming the man God created you to be. Real discipleship doesn't happen in rows. It happens shoulder to shoulder.

It Started With Four Men
OUR STORY
The Statesman's Forum began in January 2026 with a founder and three men gathering faithfully each week at a public library in Georgetown, Delaware.
We believe the same God who used twelve ordinary men to turn the world upside down is raising up a new generation of statesmen for such a time as this.
The measure of our success is not how many men attend a meeting, but how many men become disciple-makers who raise up others.

Behind the Ministry Is a Story of Grace
