Tony Galati

As Director of Three Summits Coaching, Tony provides strategic leadership and direction for Men of Iron’s coaching pathway, equipping men in leadership positions with clear goals, practical action plans, and ongoing accountability to thrive in their Core 5: Faith, Family, Friends, Fitness, and Finances. His role includes developing coaches, leading and promoting peer groups, and building partnerships with churches and organizations that desire to invest intentionally in the growth of their men.

“God instilled in me a passion to help others from a young age. However, I spent the early years of my life bouncing between halfhearted commitments and living in pure rebellion. I am grateful for God’s grace, mercy, love, and forgiveness. God has taken my regrets and turned them into opportunities to help others, as I am able to relate to many of the issues men face today. I also have a deep passion to help men who are walking through difficult marriages. God has truly blessed me with my role at Men of Iron, and I humbly and thankfully choose to be used as a vessel for Him.”

“I made the decision to join the team at Men of Iron because of the great mission of changing a culture one man at a time, and the passion of this team to honor God and follow the Holy Spirit’s direction. I have personally seen the impact of mentorships in men’s lives, including my own. I’ve been very blessed to have mentors lead me from a very young age up to this day. I know the importance of passing on what God has blessed us with personally. This is the legacy I live for! I believe wholeheartedly that we are responsible to help prepare men all around us to not only understand this principle of leadership legacy, but to actually live this out daily. This is why I chose to be a part of this team!”

Colton Herb

Mentorship has been a cornerstone of my life, shaping me into the man I am today. I’ve experienced firsthand the power of having strong, godly men invest in me, guiding me through life’s challenges and victories. That’s why I’m passionate about Men of Iron—a movement committed to sharpening men into the leaders, husbands, and fathers God has called them to be.

At Men of Iron, we’re tackling some of the biggest issues facing men today. Too many men go through life without the accountability, brotherhood, and guidance they need to grow spiritually and lead well.

Through mentorship, community, and discipleship, we’re equipping men to make eternal impact in their homes, churches, and communities.

But we can’t do it alone. Would you consider partnering with me as we pursue our mission of changing a culture one man at a time?

Cayden Lasher

As a Digital Iron Rep with Men of Iron, Cayden’s focus is to reach men through digital media—introducing them to Jesus and equipping them to fully follow Him in their Faith, Family, Friends, Fitness, and Finances. With a heart for the next generation, he is passionate about creating digital pathways that help men pursue accountability, discipleship, and spiritual growth so they can thrive in their Core5 and step into the leaders God has called them to be.

“I joined Men of Iron because my generation of men is hungry for the Gospel and for truth, yet uniquely vulnerable in a highly digitized age that often isolates and distracts. I believe the Lord has given me a passion and creativity for the media space to help shepherd men toward a personal encounter with Jesus. If even one man is reached, God will multiply that impact into his family, workplace, and community.”
Prior to joining Men of Iron, Cayden spent three years in the competitive esports industry as a Fortnite commentator and analyst, developing strong communication skills and a people-first mindset—always remembering that every person on the other side of the screen is God’s child.

Lloyd Herr

As the Lancaster County Iron Rep with Men of Iron, my focus is to build meaningful relationships with men and help them grow into the leaders God has called them to be. I am excited to join Men of Iron because I have seen the impact this ministry has made in men’s lives, and I look forward to helping that impact continue throughout Lancaster County. For most of my life, I have found fulfillment in serving others, building strong connections, and knowing that I have made a meaningful difference in someone’s life.

Before joining Men of Iron, I worked as a registered nurse for more than 20 years, serving in both the emergency room and operating room. More recently, I transitioned into information technology supporting medical software. My professional experience has taught me how to listen carefully, remain steady in difficult situations, solve problems, and care for people during important moments in their lives. I am also actively involved in my church, where I have opportunities to preach and teach classes.

Men of Iron’s mission to change a culture, one man at a time, closely aligns with my heart for ministry. I believe that when a man grows in his relationship with God, the impact reaches far beyond his own life. It changes the way he leads his family, builds friendships, serves his church, approaches his work, and influences his community. As a nurse, I had the privilege of helping people heal physically. Through Men of Iron, I now have the opportunity to help men grow and experience healing in other important areas of their lives.

My wife and I have been married for 18 years, and we have three boys, ages 14, 13, and 9. Much of my time outside of work is spent with my family. I enjoy playing basketball, biking, reading, watching movies together, coaching my boys, and supporting them as they participate in sports—especially lacrosse. At the heart of my work is a desire to see men become stronger followers of Jesus who positively influence their families and the culture around them.

Ed Daubert

As the Berks and Schuylkill County Iron Rep, I’m passionate about helping men become who God has called them to be. I’ve experienced firsthand what can happen when men are challenged to grow in their faith, families, relationships, health, and finances, and I’m excited to help other men take those same steps.

Before joining Men of Iron, I served as a correctional officer for 21 years. I’ve also been a competitive powerlifter since 2002, setting 22 world records in my age and weight classes, and I own a private gym where I train adults and children. But more than any career, title, or accomplishment, my identity is found in being a child of God.

Men of Iron’s mission of changing a culture one man at a time connects deeply with me. I believe when a man becomes intentional about who God has called him to be, the impact reaches far beyond himself into his family, church, workplace, friendships, and community.

I’m a father of four and enjoy training, working with children, sharing weekly devotions, leading a local men’s group, and spending time with my family. My goal is simple: honor God and help men recognize who He created them to be.

I’ve always felt a desire to help other young men on their life journey too. I believe MOI is giving structure and a proven model to what is so necessary in today’s culture. And that is a guiding hand of a Godly man to help navigate the challenges men encounter to become the men God designed them to be. Being a board member is a privilege to play a small part in this journey and witness the transformation that many men experience through the MOI mentoring program.“

Not only have mentors and protégés positively impacted my marriage, responsibilities as a father and businessman but even more importantly growth in my spiritual walk. In Matthew 28:19 we are All called to “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”. It has been blessing and joy to witness a man discover his heart for God and the desire to live for Him.”

Why join the Men of Iron Board? “Men are called to mentorship, to share Biblical wisdom gained from life experiences, both positive and negative, with younger men. Making these connections is often awkward and therefore avoided. MOI provides the needed framework and model through which mentorship can begin and thrive. I have been privileged in my life to learn and grow from others, and then share that with those God has blessed me to mentor. I am grateful for this calling on my life and the privilege to serve MOI and the work the Lord is doing in and through this great organization.”

An interesting fact about David: “I lost both parents in my mid-30s. Both were great athletes and active. God used that in my life to quit with some bad health habits and start healthy ones.
