ABOUT





ADVANCING MISSIONAL INNOVATION.
The world is changing fast. Globalization, technology, and culture change is shaping how people live, think, and believe.
This is a missional challenge for a new generation. The Church must recover a courageous imagination to engage today’s world with clarity, creativity, and conviction.
We believe God is raising up a generation of pioneers to plant churches, make disciples, launch ministries, and build Gospel ventures for our time, like missionary leaders have done in every era of history. But they need better pathways to move from imagination to impact.
That’s where we come in.
Missional Labs is an innovation partner for the Church. We help leaders, churches, and ministries around the world launch Gospel ventures that respond to today’s greatest mission challenges, through formation, strategy, and community.
The future of the Church is shaped by today’s pioneers - build with us.
THE CHALLENGE
Churches, ministries, and networks have vision and resources but struggle to advance innovation in a changing world. Meanwhile, Spirit-led pioneers are building what's next, but lack institutional backing and formation to build sustainable ministries and movements
OUR MODEL
IMAGINE
We activate missional imagination, helping leaders discern what God is doing next and explore emerging ideas, Kingdom dreams, and strategic opportunities.
