Because connection alone isn’t formation.

South Orange County is full of men who appear connected—successful, active, and surrounded—yet many are quietly battling addiction, isolation, and spiritual stagnation. knxshn was born from this tension: the ache between image and intimacy , motion and meaning, belief and transformation.

We believe that true connection happens when men are formed in Christ—when the Holy Spirit forges character in the heat of real life, not behind curated perfection. The knxshn project exists to cultivate digital and local spaces where that refining can happen—where surrender meets strength, resistance becomes growth, and pursuit ignites purpose.

Through biblical discipleship, authentic brotherhood, and transformative rhythms, we’re reimagining men’s ministry for a culture with an apetitte for genuine formation.

This isn’t about self-improvement; it’s about divine exchange—becoming more like Christ, together.

From Fire to Formation

A Story of Calling and Leadership

The knxshn project was born in fire—not from success, but from surrender. In the crucible of addiction and isolation, I was stripped down to the core of who I was. What remained wasn’t strength or certainty, but dependence—a raw pursuit of the One who refines through grace. There, in the furnace of failure and mercy, I discovered that transformation isn’t achieved by perfection, but by pursuit—by staying near to Christ in the heat of His sanctifying love.

Out of that encounter came a calling: to create a movement for men to walk that same refining path—from brokenness to renewal, from isolation to brotherhood, from shame to sanctification.

I’m Nicholas Harmon, founder of the knxshn project and a Doctor of Ministry candidate in Spiritual formation and Soul Care. This calling is lived, not theorized—shaped by confession, courage, and community. My mission is to form Christ in men through truth, grace, and brotherhood.

The fire that once broke me now fuels a ministry of transformation—where grace doesn’t just save; it shapes.

Redefining Mens Ministry

Our vision to see men formed into the likeness of Christ through digital discipleship, authentic community, and transformative rhythms. We’re building bridges between ancient practices and modern platforms—helping men encounter the living God right where they are.

The Knxshn Project Method

Every element in the Knxshn Project is designed to form men through three refining movements—Surrender, Resistance, and Pursuit—woven into the daily Refinery Rhythm of Life:

Morning Flame Cast — Surrender Each morning begins in surrender. We yield our will the Spirit’s fire, receiving divine direction and strength for the day ahead. This where the refining starts—when our plans bow to His purpose.

Midday Reset — Resistance In the heat of the day, we resist the pull of distraction, temptation, and self-reliance. We pause to recalibrate our hearts, re-center our focus, and stand firm in the truth that we’ve already been claimed by grace.

Evening Examen — Pursuit As night falls, we pursue formation through reflection and gratitude. We trace the day’s movements, confess where we strayed, celebrate where we obeyed, and realign our desire with Christ’s ongoing work within us.

Together, these movements and rhythm cooperate with grace to forge a life shaped not by striving, but by steady transformation—a daily journey of being formed, refined, and sent
