Start with honest conversation and prayer. We want to understand your story, calling, ministry experience, hopes, and questions—not rush you toward a predetermined outcome.
A Calling Worth Exploring. A Journey Shared.
Church planting asks much of a leader. Discernment, preparation, and enduring relationships can help you pursue that calling with health and clarity.
Begin the ConversationAssess
Discernment considers the whole leader: character, spiritual health, relationships, experience, strengths, growth areas, and fit with the community you hope to serve.
Prepare
Preparation can include coaching, learning, relationship-building, ministry planning, and connection with churches and partners. The path should fit the person and context rather than a rigid calendar.
Support
Planting is not finished at launch. Our intended approach includes ongoing care, coaching, partnership, and a long view toward healthy multiplication.
Character Before Platform.
We want to meet leaders marked by a growing life with Jesus, humility, teachability, meaningful ministry experience, and a genuine commitment to know and serve a local community.
- Spiritual and relational health
- A teachable, collaborative posture
- Demonstrated ministry experience
- Commitment to a California community
