Additionally, he preaches at revivals across the southeast, and writes a religion column for the Daily Mountain Eagle. McCullar is excited about the event and stated, "I pray for men to be the Godly sons, husbands, fathers, servants, disciples and examples that God wants us to be as we follow Him. I pray this daily in my own life. But like many men, I often fall short. God put it on my heart to have a conference for the men of Carbon Hill, Walker County, and surrounding areas so we could focus on men returning to following after God's own heart. I pray that men from all over West Alabama will be refreshed, challenges, encouraged, and exhorted to surrender their lives willingly to Jesus so we can see revival in our homes, churches, and land."Following McCullar will be Clay Dyer, a professional fisherman born without any limbs except for a partial right arm.
