“Knights of The 21st Century opened my eyes to the true and meaningful values and attributes of life. I will use and value these lessons the rest of my life.”
—Ryan (inmate)
“Knights of The 21st Century has taught me how to really succeed and have a fulfilling life. Knightly love is about keeping your wife happy, and feeling better as a man because you put her needs before your wants.”
—Jon (inmate)
“Knights is a great class. I wait for Wednesdays to have the class. And the way it is taught is very interesting and I learn a lot. I hope other people have the same opportunity that I have. Thank you for helping me take a deep look at how to be a better man. Not the false ways I was taught. Thank you very much!”
—Robert (inmate)
Through our 24-week DVD program The Heroic Man’s Journey, K21 works to change the often disheartening status of our culture by providing males with the tools to achieve true manhood. We believe that every man is of infinite worth—and it’s never too late to change.
K21 guides males toward manhood with the following goals as our focus:
- To inspire men to adopt a new attitude.
- To challenge and motivate men to realize and strive toward their full potential.
- To lead men to become better husbands, fathers and friends.
- To introduce a system of strong values that help men recognize and guide their anger and emotions.
- To help build strong, supportive accountability relationships between men.
- To instill a sense of respect for all women.
- To integrate faith into manhood in understandable ways.
- To lower recidivism rates.
Men continually make positive, necessary changes in their lives through our prison ministry. In each class of about 12 men, at least one man makes drastic changes in his life to such a degree that he becomes a leader in the Christian community in prison. Of the remainder of the participants, another 6 to 8 experience a wonderful change in attitude.
K21 prison groups start out with Squire: The Training of the Knight, the first 24-lesson part of our 5-part series—The Heroic Man’s Journey. Squire introduces men to manhood in understandable, relatable ways. After watching each video lesson, the men split up into smaller “campfire” groups to discuss the deeper aspects of life. The Squire workbook contains questions to help drive these growth-producing discussions. The workbooks also contain motivating action steps, pages for writing out goals and other tools to help men move even further in their manhood journey.

“Knights of The 21st Century has shown me how to be a better man. If I had something like this before, I would not have wound up in this place. This is a great program.”
—Rick (Inmate)
