Looking for a Christian men’s group or mentor

I’ve been away from God for a really long time. I have a mix of mild autism, ADHD, and a strong need for things to be logically and empirical. My ex-wife was somewhat performative in her faith and it ended up with me getting caught up in church drama and a bad taste in my mouth with church groups. On top of that, I started worshipping the almighty dollar and fell away from God, relying on myself instead. Turns out sin can be a gilded cage you don’t even realize you’re in.

Things turned sideways for me recently when I lost my job and I woke up to realize that I’m a divorced dad at 42 with no friends, no ambitions, and no real reason to keep going other than my daughter. I didn’t even remember what life is for besides taking care of responsibilities and making money. Then I prayed. Something I haven’t done in a really long time. Then I realized I need to make a change but I’m not ready to jump back into a full church family yet. I was hoping to find a small men’s group or even a local pastor/mentor I could connect with to see if I could slowly find my way back.

Sorry for the life story. But if you know of anyone or anything, I’d really appreciate the help.
