Centerpoint Men's Ministry began in 2023 under Nathan Bell's leadership with firesides, two studies on the Chosen Series, one study on the Beattitudes and a first retreat at Camp Spofford in 2024. In 2025, Sean McFeely and Brion Gidley jumped in to take the lead as Nathan stepped into community groups.
We went to the Faith and Reason Conference in 2025 on Lake George at the Silver Bay YMCA Conference Center. We enjoyed the book 'Gospel Centered Living' in the Fall, 'Becoming a Godly Husband' by Dr. Gil Steiglitz in the winter of 2026, and are currently studying Philippians on Monday nights at 7pm.
We added monthly breakfasts for the chillier months, and will be trying Camp Orchard Hill's 'Band of Brothers' Retreat in 2026. Sean has three mentoring slots and currently meets with two guys regularly. If you are looking to be mentored in a particular area, please reach out!
Sean grew up in York, PA and came to Christ at Young Life's Windy Gap camp when he was 14. Since then his 'career path' has taken a wild way from serving as an engineer designing parts for cars in Detroit, to leading wilderness trips in the Sierras, to working at Christian camps, to technical sales, and back to serving at camp. Most of his ministry has been serving urban youth.
Sean met wife Amy an Ohio gal in 1996 in Burbank, CA. They celebrate 28 years in August. They have two adult daughters, Abbey and Rebecca. Sean loves to rock climb, garden, read, fix stuff, swim, scuba dive, boat, backpack, and explore new areas in God's amazing creation. He has a Masters in Organizational Leadership from Biola University, and a Mechanical Engineering degree from Grove City College, but don't hold that against him. He is most proud to be the fully adopted and forgiven son of the most high King!
Brion is from X, He is married to Ashley and they have an amazing daughter Victoria, plus an adult son Nate from Brion's first marriage. Brion serves as a civilian contractor in logistics for the Army, and as a Chaplain in the Army Reserves.
