to Build Healthy Leaders and Churches to Transform Their Nations
Christian leadership must be built on and in union with the Person of Jesus Christ. Our work begins and ends with Jesus!
We operate within and focus on the context and needs of indigenous front-line leaders. We seek to understand and serve what God is already doing in the nations.
Our goal is holistic transformation in the lives of the leaders we serve. We build healthy leaders who go on to build healthy churches!
To catalyze and strengthen indigenous movements of healthy leader development and care, and thereby accelerate church planting and disciple-making, especially among the least served.

We are visionaries. We envision leaders with a vision for building healthy leaders, healthy churches, and generational succession.
We are spiritual mothers and fathers. We nurture leaders in their own spiritual lives, biblical understanding, marriages, families and ministries. One of the greatest needs of leaders around the world is for spiritual mothers and fathers. Our team provides love, prayer, care and support for leaders.
We are teachers. We train leaders on the core principles and practices of healthy leader development. We do not just give them a particular curriculum or preplanned leader development “package” but instead help them to internalize the fundamental biblical principles of holistic leader development.
We are mentors. We coach them on an ongoing basis as they form and implement their own training designs in their own environments. We also consult with them on a wide variety of life and leadership issues.
We are providers. We resource them with printed materials, models, frameworks, tools, examples of learning design, and case studies of effective leader development in a variety of contexts, and other pertinent resources.
We are pioneers. We help leaders launch new forms of training in various ministry sectors, exploring what really works in their local context.
We are networkers. We help them network with leaders from other ministries and church planting movements who are wrestling with the same issues – for mutual learning, collaboration, encouragement and leader care. We also network with other ministries who share a similar vision and who serve the national churches.

By 2040, national teams in 100 nations nurturing movements of healthy leader development that will build healthy churches and reach the unreached to transform their nations.
Our ConneXions model is a new – in reality, old – approach to leader development.
Here are brief descriptions of our foundational ConneXions models. These models inform and direct everything we do in leadership development.
A healthy Christian leader knows God (Christ), was formed and lives in supportive and accountable community (Community), has integrity (Character), knows the purpose of God and presents it with credibility, clarity, and passion (Calling), and has the necessary thinking and acting capacities to effectively lead the people in the accomplishment of this purpose (Competencies).
Jesus’ method of building leaders was a rich holistic process, involving spiritual, relational, experiential, and instructional dynamics.
A healthy church is one in which every member is functioning properly – growing in God, serving others, building others, and reaching out.
