About
Advancing Missional Innovation.
The future of the Church requires a renewed imagination. In a missionary age, we believe the pioneers of today will shape the Church of tomorrow.
That’s where we come in. We help pioneer leaders discern their vision and design their venture through our unique support model. In short, we treat ministries like startups.
We’re reimagining the missionary society for today, building a global community of missional leaders and ventures, with a vision to renew a hopeful witness for the Church for our time.
