Healthy leaders build healthy churches.
But leadership development doesn’t happen by accident — it happens when churches intentionally make disciples, raise up new leaders, and mobilize their people for mission.
Our Leadership Cohort is designed to help you do just that.
Who is this for?
Pastors and ministry leaders responsible for groups, discipleship, leadership development, or mission.
Churches ready to move from maintenance to multiplication.
Leaders looking for a relational, gospel-centered cohort, not just another training event.
In-Person Gatherings
We will gather twice. The first will center on understanding and planning. The second will focus on debriefing your work.
Personalized Coaching
Between gatherings, you’ll have one-on-one coaching sessions with experienced practitioners who are still in the trenches of ministry.
Practical Tools and Templates
Gospel-centered and field-tested resources will guide our time to help you build simple, scalable leadership systems.
Peer Community and Development
You’ll journey alongside a cohort of leaders for encouragement, accountability, and collaboration.
What to Expect
Move from maintenance to multiplication.
Join a community of like-minded leaders committed to
making disciples, raising up leaders, and multiplying churches —
side by side, for the sake of the gospel

Where vision
meets community.
The Leadership Cohort equips you with simple, biblical tools to develop leaders and build a culture of discipleship in your church. You'll walk away with a clear plan, practical resources, and the encouragement that comes from doing ministry alongside others who share your heart for multiplication. Whether you're just getting started or ready to take the next step, this cohort is designed to meet you where you are and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
Experienced ministry practitioners and trainers Todd Engstrom and Ben Connelly will lead the time, facilitate the conversation, and provide proven, specific coaching for your specific need.
