Plant Churches. Train Pastors.
The world needs more and better churches and more and better pastors.
We believe every community deserves access to a healthy, hope-filled, mission driven church led by a well-equipped pastor. When pastors are trained with wisdom, compassion, and a strong foundation in Scripture and leadership, they are better prepared to serve, shepherd, and lead with integrity. And when new churches are planted with intention and support, more people experience the love of God right where they are.
Our mission is to identify and equip those called to ministry in all stages of life and raise them up to be humble, capable leaders—so that faith can grow, families can be strengthened, and communities can be transformed.
Church Planting
A call to ministry shouldn’t come with crippling debt, sleepless nights, and a disconnected classroom experience—only to walk away with a piece of paper and no clear path forward.
We believe ministry training should be attainable, Spirit-led, growth-focused, and deeply practical. That’s why our mission is to equip and launch humble, capable leaders who are grounded in wisdom and surrounded by real community.
We’re raising up pastors and ministry leaders who are supported by strong leadership, useful resources, and meaningful relationships—so they can truly make a difference in families, churches, and communities everywhere.
Forge Youth Camp
Forge Youth Camp exists to ignite a generation that will seek and save the lost. We create a space where students encounter the tangible power and presence of God—experiences that shape their faith for a lifetime. When a life is forged by the Holy Spirit, young people step boldly into the God-sized purpose for which they were created.
For students sensing an early call to ministry, we offer a clear on-ramp: practical training, mentoring, and a supportive community that equips them to walk confidently into their calling.
Journey to Ministry
A call to ministry shouldn’t come with crippling debt, sleepless nights, and a disconnected classroom experience—only to walk away with a piece of paper and no clear path forward.
We believe ministry training should be biblically faithful, Spirit-led, growth-focused, and deeply practical for leadership in the local church. God is always calling people - we want to help them get started.
We raise up pastors and ministry leaders through a two-year, cohort-based program which is supported by strong leadership, resources, and relationships—so they can make a difference in families, churches, and communities everywhere.
