FAQ

  • Our missional incubator is a 12-week hybrid intensive designed to help emerging Christian leaders refine their vision, develop their strategy, and launch high-impact Kingdom ventures of all kinds.

  • It is for church leaders, ministry entrepreneurs, social impact leaders, and emerging visionaries in the early stages of building new missional initiatives.

  • Participants will finish the program with:

    • A clarified mission and theological vision

    • A validated venture model and strategic roadmap

    • A refined pitch deck and storytelling tools

    • A trusted community of peers and mentors

    • A pathway into our Fellowship and capital network

  • This is a mostly-virtual program, allowing participation from anywhere in the world, with the opportunity for an in-person celebration and demo day at the end of each cohort.

  • The incubator includes weekly virtual sessions, optional in-person immersions, peer networking, expert mentorship, and a final pitch event.

  • Each cohort consists of anywhere from 25 to 50 participants selected through an application process.  The zoom calls are large format, and you'll be in tracks of 10 participants for deeper engagement.

  • The incubator is ideal for early-stage ventures, from initial concept to pre-launch. Participants should have a well-formed idea and a clear sense of the problem they are solving.

  • Participants should expect to dedicate approximately 3 hours per week for 10 weeks, plus additional time for optional mentoring and networking.

  • The curriculum guides you through mission, vocation, storytelling, audience identification, solution development, resource planning, and spiritual alignment.

  • The per-person cost of this program is $3000. Most participants partner with a sending church or ministry to cover the fee, and we have scholarships and discounts on an as-needed basis. If you have questions about this, send us an email.
