Connect Conference (Nashville) — Organization Profile
Connect Conference is an annual Christian gathering hosted by the Crieve Hall Church of Christ in Nashville, Tennessee. The conference is built to help Christians and congregations strengthen their shared mission through discipleship, evangelism, and spiritual growth, bringing together attendees from across the United States for Scripture-centered teaching, worship, and encouragement.
According to its stated mission and description, Connect Conference is intentionally focused on the Great Commission—seeking to train and motivate disciples to evangelize the lost and bring souls to Jesus Christ. In practice, that purpose is expressed through keynote-style lessons, classroom sessions, and a schedule designed to address practical needs in congregational life. The goal is not merely inspiration, but equipping that can translate into faithful action in everyday relationships, family life, and local church ministry.
The conference is organized to serve a wide range of attendees, including individuals, families, and church leaders. Its programming commonly includes interactive learning environments, opportunities for fellowship with other Christians, and shared worship through congregational singing. Because the event is hosted by a local congregation with support from multiple churches and partner organizations, it also functions as a regional hub for collaboration—encouraging churches to learn from one another and return home with clear next steps for disciple-making.
Connect Conference also provides practical tools beyond live sessions. The official site includes a downloads area with promotional and presentation resources, and the conference maintains an online video presence for keynote livestreams and archived recordings. This makes it possible for churches, small groups, and individuals to reuse lessons for continued study, teaching, and encouragement throughout the year.
For those who want to engage, the simplest starting points are the conference’s About and FAQ pages, which summarize the conference purpose and participation expectations, along with the exhibits information for organizations that want to serve attendees. Churches and individuals can also follow the official social accounts for public updates and use the contact page for conference-related questions.

Stadia Church Planting — Organization Profile
Stadia Church Planting is a church planting organization that helps leaders start new churches designed to thrive, grow, and multiply—with a particular focus on reaching the next generation. Founded in 2003, Stadia describes its vision as “a world where every child has a church,” and it works with churches, networks, and individual leaders who want to pursue church multiplication in their local context and beyond.
Stadia’s approach is built around guiding leaders through the full journey of church planting and early-stage leadership. The organization emphasizes healthy leadership, local impact, and disciple-making multiplication, and it frames church planting as a practical pathway for Great Commission engagement in communities where new and accessible expressions of church can take root.
A key entry point for many leaders is Stadia’s Discovery Center, which is designed to help potential planters explore calling, readiness, and competencies. Stadia also notes that the Discovery process represents a meaningful investment of tools, time, and coaching, and it is commonly pursued in partnership with a sending church, network, or denomination. This upfront discernment is intended to clarify fit and strengthen the planter’s foundation before moving toward launch.
For launch-stage support, Stadia offers Startup Services and related planning guidance to help teams move from vision to implementation. Stadia highlights that “church” can happen in a wide range of settings—such as coffee shops, schools, and other community spaces—reflecting a flexible, contextualized mindset for planting. After launch, Stadia’s Post-Launch Services are positioned to help new churches continue developing in health, leadership, and sustainability beyond the initial startup season.
Stadia also serves churches and partners who want to invest in multiplication, not only through financial support, but through relationships, prayer, and collaboration. The organization operates as a fully remote team, providing ways to connect through its website, events, Vision Trips, and ongoing resources. Engagement options typically include exploring church partnership, pursuing the Discovery process as a prospective planter, giving to support church planting efforts, and connecting directly with Stadia for next steps.

Churches of Christ Disaster Relief Effort — Organization Profile
Churches of Christ Disaster Relief Effort (also known as Disaster Relief Effort, Inc.) is a Christian disaster-response ministry that provides material aid in the wake of major disasters. Based in Nashville, Tennessee, the organization operates a supply warehouse and coordinates rapid shipments to communities in crisis, working through local congregations to ensure help arrives where it is needed.
The ministry explains its approach in simple terms: it responds quickly to major disasters in the United States and U.S. territories by sending truckloads of emergency food, water, cleaning supplies, and other basic necessities, which are then distributed to disaster survivors through a nearby Church of Christ congregation. This model allows the organization to move large quantities of practical supplies and to leverage local church relationships for on-the-ground distribution and follow-up.
A key distinctive is how Disaster Relief Effort prepares and funds shipments. The organization emphasizes that it purchases supplies in bulk at steep discounts so that donations can be stretched further and shipments can be staged and ready to deploy without waiting on donated goods to arrive. When a disaster occurs and a local congregation requests assistance, the ministry can load trailers and route deliveries to the affected area, where members and volunteers help unload and distribute supplies.
In addition to shipping supplies, Disaster Relief Effort invites churches and individuals to participate through prayer, financial giving, and hands-on service. The organization regularly schedules volunteer opportunities at its Nashville warehouse, where groups can help pack boxes, organize inventory, and prepare loads for shipment. It also communicates ongoing activity through its news updates and reports, helping supporters track where shipments are going and how relief is being distributed.
Those who want to engage can connect with the ministry through its website for giving, volunteering, and contact information. For congregations in areas affected by disasters, the organization provides clear pathways for requesting assistance and coordinating deliveries. For supporters elsewhere, the ministry offers regular updates and published reports that document shipments and relief activity over time.

TEAM || The Evangelical Alliance Mission — Organization Profile
TEAM, formally The Evangelical Alliance Mission, is a global Christian missions organization that partners with churches to send workers into cross-cultural ministry. The organization states that it exists to partner with the global Church in sending disciples who make disciples and establish missional churches for the glory of God. TEAM’s public materials describe its work as focused on making disciples in hard-to-reach places while supporting missionaries, sending churches, prayer partners, and donors.
TEAM is headquartered in Aurora, Illinois, with mailing offices in Wheaton, Illinois, and a Canada office in Calgary, Alberta. Its ministry scope is international, with TEAM reporting workers in 40+ countries and more than 130 years of continuous missionary sending. The organization serves churches, missionaries, ministry candidates, and communities across many regions through evangelism, discipleship, church planting, education, medical ministry, community development, international church ministry, and member care.
The core of TEAM’s strategy is sending and supporting workers who serve alongside the global Church. TEAM emphasizes that missionary roles are not one-size-fits-all. Its opportunity listings include categories such as Unreached People Groups, Education Ministries, Medical Ministries, Church Planting & Evangelism, International Church Ministries, and TEAMtrek short-term missions. The organization also offers short-term, mid-term, and long-term service pathways for people exploring cross-cultural ministry.
TEAM’s process includes personal missions coaching, application guidance, training, member care, language and cultural preparation, and on-field support. Public materials describe missions coaches who help candidates explore their gifts, interests, and possible ministry settings. TEAM also describes individualized care for missionaries, including pre-departure mentoring, on-field language and cultural education, financial guidance, and support for workers and their families.
A distinctive part of TEAM’s approach is working through local church partnership while keeping church ministry central to every missionary role. TEAM states that wherever its workers serve, the goal is connected to gospel witness and the formation or strengthening of communities of believers. This church-centered approach may take place through traditional pastoral ministry, medical work, education, community development, business, counseling, or other professional and service roles.
People can engage TEAM by applying to serve, connecting with a missions coach, exploring TEAMtrek or other mission opportunities, praying for global workers, supporting missionaries and ministry projects, giving to TEAM, or using TEAM’s church resources to strengthen missions engagement. Churches can also partner with TEAM to mobilize, send, care for, and support disciples who serve in global mission contexts.

HHI describes its work as meeting practical needs while partnering with local leaders and churches so communities can move toward long-term resilience rather than short-term fixes.
HHI is based in Nashville, Tennessee, with programs and partnerships that extend around the world. The organization’s model centers on equipping people closest to the need—local community and church leaders—with tools, training, and resources that can be sustained and multiplied within their own context.
HHI carries out its mission through five primary program areas. Clean Water focuses on providing access to safe drinking water through wells and filtration systems. Hunger to Harvest equips communities to fight hunger through basic gardening and sustainable agricultural techniques, often delivered through workshops and hands-on training. Women of Hope supports women through education, small business training, savings group facilitation, and microfinance so women can strengthen their families and communities. The MAGI Project provides gift boxes intended to meet tangible needs of children living in poverty while opening relational opportunities to share Jesus with families and communities. Disaster Response provides relief after tragedy and supports recovery through efforts such as rebuilding, distribution of supplies, and other resilience-focused projects.
Because volunteer participation is woven into how several programs function, HHI offers multiple ways for individuals and churches to engage. Supporters can donate to specific program areas (water, hunger, women’s empowerment, MAGI, or disaster response), participate in events like Walk4Water, and help pack or coordinate MAGI boxes. The organization also shares updates and stories to help partners understand where support is being directed and how programs are implemented.
For those exploring deeper involvement, HHI provides pathways to volunteer, give, and learn through its program pages, stories, and communications. Whether someone’s next step is praying, hosting an event, supplying a kit, sponsoring a project, or contributing financially, HHI frames engagement as joining a practical, on-the-ground effort to serve communities in Christ’s name.

Mission to Russia International — Organization Profile
Mission to Russia International, also known as MTR International, is a Christian mission organization based in St. Peters, Missouri. The organization exists to make disciples in Russian-speaking nations through church planting and Christian education. Its public ministry focus is multiplying churches among Russian-speaking people and taking the gospel message of forgiveness, love, and salvation to people living in the former Soviet Union.
The organization’s core focus is multiplying churches among Russian-speaking people through church planting, local leadership development, Christian education, and gospel-centered partnerships. MTR International began its church-planting mission with its first church plant in Kostroma, Russia. That congregation has matured and continues to serve its community while raising up men and women for Christian service.
Mission to Russia International serves Russian-speaking communities in the former Soviet Union, with current or associated church work identified in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, and Abkhazia. Its public church pages identify established churches in Kostroma, Gomel, and Mogilev, along with associate churches in Davydovsky and Gus-Hrustalniy. Current church-planting locations include Minsk, Nizhny Novgorod, Ivanovo, Lutsk, Nesvizh, Krivoy Rog, Sukhum, and a second Lutsk church plant.
The ministry operates through church planting, support for established congregations, missionary partnerships, leadership involvement, and Christian education. Its sister ministry, Light to the World Ministries, supports kingdom work among families in Russia through Light to the World Christian Academy in Kostroma. The academy was established in 1999 to meet the educational and spiritual needs of children in Kostroma, providing Russian primary and secondary education while regularly teaching students the Bible.
A distinctive part of Mission to Russia International’s work is connecting church planting with long-term Christian education and discipleship among Russian-speaking families. Through Light to the World Christian Academy, students receive eleven years of instruction in English and biblical teaching, and many families encounter the gospel through the school. MTR International’s church-planting work also emphasizes existing and emerging congregations that can serve their communities and continue raising up Christian workers.
People can engage with Mission to Russia International by praying, giving, supporting church planting, sponsoring Light to the World Christian Academy students, following ministry updates, or contacting the ministry directly. Supporters can give online, set up recurring donations, text to give, or mail gifts to the St. Peters address. Churches and individuals can also follow MTR International and Light to the World Ministries through their official social channels for updates from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Abkhazia, and the academy in Kostroma.

Association of College Ministries — Organization Profile
The Association of College Ministries (ACM) is an international network of Christian campus ministries that exists to support students and campus ministers in university settings. The organization describes itself as a collective of college ministries, most with roots in the Restoration Movement, working together to advance the Great Commission. Its public mission is to bring glory to God on the university campus, with a vision to advance Jesus’ mission among college students all around the world.
ACM serves college students, campus ministers, and independent campus ministries connected with non-denominational Christian Churches and Churches of Christ. The organization’s member ministries are listed across campuses in the United States and, according to ACM’s history page, also operate in Europe, Asia, Australia/Oceania, South America, and North America outside the United States. Its network includes campus houses, Christian student fellowships, campus foundations, and other locally governed campus ministries.
The organization operates primarily as a connecting and resourcing association rather than as a single campus ministry with one physical location. ACM’s website states that the association itself does not have a physical office or phone number because it is made up of individual campus ministries around the world. Students are encouraged to search for a nearby ministry, while campus ministers can use ACM for networking, conferences, resources, job postings, and shared support.
ACM’s work is organized around four stated design emphases: Encourage, Equip, Empower, and Engage. These emphases include support, networking, collaboration, preparation, training, resourcing, recruiting, strengthening, planting, education, influence, and exposure. The association provides ministry resources, promotes campus-ministry best practices, lists open ministry roles, and helps member ministries connect with one another across campuses and regions.
A major ACM program is the E4 Conference, which is designed to equip, empower, encourage, and engage campus ministers as they serve on university campuses and beyond. The organization also hosts FOUR, an online gathering for ACM network members, and provides membership options for campus ministries that want access to conferences, discounted registrations, social media networking, newsletters, webinars, and job openings among ACM ministries.
People can engage with the Association of College Ministries by searching for a campus ministry, contacting ACM through its website form, applying for campus ministry membership, attending E4 or FOUR, reviewing open positions, paying membership dues online, or becoming a Kingdom Partner. Because local ACM ministries are independently governed, students, churches, alumni, and other supporters may also connect directly with listed campus ministries for local involvement, prayer, service, and financial support.

e2: effective elders — Organization Profile
e2: effective elders is a Christian leadership coaching and resource ministry focused on encouraging and equipping the shepherds of Christ’s church—elders. The organization serves elder teams and church staff by combining relational coaching with practical training and a growing library of print and digital resources. Alongside its coaching work, e2 publishes materials that help congregational leaders understand the biblical role of an elder and develop healthier leadership practices in real church settings.
e2 describes its beginnings in 2008, with later incorporation and recognition as a 501(c)(3) in 2012. From the start, the ministry’s stated focus has been singular: serving elders as they lead, shepherd, and guard the church. e2’s work often connects to churches and leaders within the Restoration Movement tradition, while its core leadership development emphasis is broadly applicable to elder-led congregations seeking clearer alignment, stronger shepherding, and healthier governance.
A major way e2 serves churches is through its books and bundled libraries. The “e2 Bundle” highlights the scope of its publishing: a set of thirteen books plus a JUMP START workbook. Titles in the series address both the inner life and outward responsibilities of elders—covering themes such as calling and character, leadership and shepherding, conflict resolution, church health, and practical next steps for teams. e2 also publishes specialty resources like An Elder’s Playbook (2nd Edition), presented as a collection of “plays” an elder team can use to address common leadership and ministry situations.
In addition to print resources, e2 offers digital libraries and video-based training. Its “e2 Talks” curriculum is described as a substantial bank of video instruction for elders, and the ministry also offers “e2 All Access,” a membership option that includes online formats of e2 books, embedded videos, and additional written resources. These tools are designed to make ongoing elder development possible for entire leadership teams, not only individual leaders.
e2 complements its publishing with coaching, events, and conference training. The organization states that it provides leadership coaching for elder and staff teams in both individual and group settings, including virtual options. e2 also maintains an active events calendar featuring teaching and conference participation—often in partnership with churches and Christian colleges—aimed at strengthening local-church leadership.
e2: effective elders lists its mailing location as Indianapolis, Indiana, and serves churches and elder teams across the United States and beyond through a mix of on-site and online resourcing. Leaders can engage with e2 by exploring the book catalog, purchasing digital training libraries, inviting e2 to train elders in local or regional settings, or starting a coaching conversation for an elder team. Supporters can also partner financially through the ministry’s giving options.

MegaVoice International is a Christian nonprofit organization based in Jacksonville, Florida. The ministry exists to ensure that every person, regardless of circumstances or location, has access to the Bible in their own heart language. Its work centers on providing solar-powered audio and video Bibles so people can hear and engage with Scripture where printed Bibles, literacy, sight, electricity, or internet access may be barriers.
The organization’s core focus is sharing God’s Word through durable, easy-to-use solar-powered audio and video Bibles for people who are blind, visually impaired, illiterate, orally based, unreached, persecuted, or living in remote communities. MegaVoice International states that many people cannot read printed Bibles because of literacy, language, disability, or access limitations, and its mission is to help remove those barriers.
MegaVoice International serves globally from Jacksonville, Florida, distributing audio Bibles to remote villages, persecuted believers, and people in need across Africa, Asia, Latin America, and beyond. Its work is carried out through partners such as local churches, indigenous pastors, mission agencies, Bible societies, translators, and other ministries that place Scripture devices directly into communities.
The ministry operates through audio Bible distribution, donor-funded campaigns, Scripture-access partnerships, and support for ministries requesting audio or video Bibles. Its campaign areas include Bible a Month Club, Blind, Children, Closed Country, Mission Trips, Unreached People Groups, and people-group-focused campaigns such as Pashtun, Persian, Shaikh, Turk, and Yadav. MegaVoice International also points people to request Bible devices and connect with the team about ministry projects.
A distinctive part of MegaVoice International’s work is using solar-powered Scripture technology to serve people where print, power, internet access, and literacy may be limited. The larger MegaVoice family of resources includes durable devices and a media cloud with Scripture and faith-based audio content in thousands of languages and dialects. The ministry traces its roots to the development of the world’s first solar-powered audio Bible, which grew from the vision of Tom Treseder, Ken Crowell, and J. Rudolf Geigy.
People can engage with MegaVoice International by donating, joining a recurring giving campaign, requesting audio or video Bibles for ministry use, praying, sharing updates, fundraising, volunteering, or following impact stories. The organization states that a $35 donation provides one solar-powered audio Bible, which may be shared by multiple people, and that donations help provide Scripture access for communities that may otherwise have no practical way to hear God’s Word.

North Burma Christian Mission — Organization Profile
North Burma Christian Mission, also known as NBCM, is a Christian mission organization with roots reaching back to 1921. Its current public materials describe the ministry as a mission movement serving Southeast Asia through evangelism, discipleship, church planting, Bible training, literature, media, music, youth homes, community development, and deaf ministry. The organization’s stated vision is that millions in Asia would be eternally influenced for Christ through multiple outreach ministries.
The mission has a U.S. home-office mailing contact in Ponca City, Oklahoma, while its field work is centered in Thailand and broader Southeast Asia. The ministry’s history began with J. Russell and Gertrude Morse serving in Tibet and China, continued into Burma in the early 1950s, and later relocated to Thailand in 1972. Today, NBCM describes its work as extending across multiple countries, languages, and people groups in Asia.
NBCM operates through a team of missionaries and national coworkers. Its evangelistic work includes partnering with committed national preachers to evangelize, disciple, and plant churches among tribal and local people groups. Leadership training is another core area, with Bible training courses and Bible schools serving church leaders and members across many ethnicities and languages.
The mission also supports Christian literature and media in minority languages. Its literature department in Thailand translates, designs, and prepares Bibles, hymnbooks, and other Christian materials for more than a dozen people groups. Its media and music ministries create sermons, dramas, testimonies, Christian programs, hymnbooks, music recordings, and videos that can be shared through social media and local distribution channels.
NBCM’s holistic work includes youth homes, community development, business as mission, and deaf ministry. Youth homes provide safe housing during the school year so tribal children can receive formal education while remaining connected to Christian values and their cultural identity. Development work includes agriculture, infrastructure, health and sanitation, water projects, education, church planting, and relief assistance. Deaf ministry has included churches started in Chiang Mai that are now led by local leaders.
People can engage with North Burma Christian Mission by praying for the work, subscribing to missionary newsletters, supporting individual missionaries, giving by check to the general mission fund, and learning about specific field ministries through the mission team pages. Its distinct contribution is long-term, multi-generational Christian mission work among tribal and local communities in Southeast Asia, combining Gospel proclamation with leadership training, local-language resources, and practical community care.

Training Tomorrow’s Leaders — Organization Profile
Training Tomorrow’s Leaders, often abbreviated T.T.L., is a 501(c)(3) Christian missions organization registered in the United States. The ministry exists to facilitate the planting of new churches in western Africa by financially supporting indigenous church planters, training indigenous church planters, and facilitating projects that enable new churches to be planted. Its public materials describe the work as “Expanding the Kingdom together” through church planting and missions in West Africa.
Training Tomorrow’s Leaders is based in McConnelsville, Ohio, and its ministry work is focused in northern Ghana, Togo, and Burkina Faso. The organization serves unreached people groups, local churches, indigenous church planters, pastors, evangelists, lay leaders, children, and communities in areas where gospel access and basic social resources may be limited. The ministry states that it works among unreached people groups, including groups in Ghana, Togo, and Burkina Faso.
The organization’s core ministry is church planting among unreached people groups through trained indigenous leaders. T.T.L. reports that it has planted churches in multiple regions of Ghana, Togo, and Burkina Faso and that its workers include college-trained church planters, college-trained preachers, and lay helpers. Its history traces the work to 1991, when the first church planter was sent out after training and financial support through partner churches.
Training Tomorrow’s Leaders also emphasizes training and discipleship for pastors, evangelists, church planters, lay leaders, and helpers. The ministry organizes seminars and provides training in both literary and non-literary methods of evangelism and discipleship. Because some communities include high levels of illiteracy, T.T.L. uses oral methods to help communicate the gospel and disciple believers. The organization also identifies Charis School of the Bible and Missions as part of its effort to develop future church planters and missionaries.
Beyond church planting and training, T.T.L. works through community development and children’s ministry. Its public materials describe assistance with school fees, medical costs, small-business grants, agricultural projects, schools, clothing, and wells for safe drinking water. The ministry also trains children’s ministry leaders, organizes Vacation Bible School programs, provides materials for children’s ministry, and starts Christian schools in West African communities with the aim of raising students who can serve their communities.
People can engage Training Tomorrow’s Leaders by praying, giving, volunteering, fundraising, contacting the ministry, or helping share its work with churches and families. The organization states that it depends on partnership to support church planters, training, community development, and children’s ministry efforts. Supporters can give through the ministry’s website or contact T.T.L. directly to learn about volunteer opportunities, events, and ways to help expand the work.

Missouri Christian Convention — Organization Profile
The Missouri Christian Convention is an annual Christian gathering that brings together church leaders, families, students, children, and ministry partners for a weekend of teaching, worship, workshops, and connection. The convention’s website centers its public information on event registration, speakers, schedules, children’s programming, student programming, sponsorships, and church partnerships. Its current event information points to the 2026 convention at the Lodge of the Four Seasons in Lake Ozark, showing that the convention functions as a recurring statewide event rather than a single local church ministry.
Its core focus is gathering and encouraging churches through main sessions, practical workshops, and ministry networking. Public registration pages show multiple ways people participate, including standard attendee registration, church partner registration, exhibitor registration, sponsorship registration, and a donation option. The event also includes a Senior Leader Pre-Conference for ministers and other leaders who carry primary shepherding and leadership responsibilities in their churches. That combination suggests a ministry model built around annual convening, leader development, and accessible participation for churches of different sizes.
The convention’s audience is broad. The site promotes discounted church partner registration so congregations can send more people, and it also makes space for ministries and organizations to exhibit or sponsor the event. Programming is not limited to adults. MCC Kids provides care and children’s sessions for ages birth through fifth grade, while MCC Students offers workshops and activities for students in grades six through twelve. In that sense, the Missouri Christian Convention serves both ministry leaders and whole church families, with a structure designed to help multiple generations attend the same gathering.
Geographically, the convention is rooted in Missouri and publicly gathers attendees at Lake Ozark, Missouri, in the Lake of the Ozarks region. Speaker listings on the site also show participation from organizations and churches in Missouri and beyond, including voices from Moberly, Joplin, St. Charles, Quincy, and Cincinnati. Its operating strategy appears straightforward: host a concentrated annual event with keynote speakers, breakout workshops, pre-conference training, student and children’s tracks, and opportunities for churches, exhibitors, and sponsors to connect in one place.
People can engage with the Missouri Christian Convention in several practical ways. Individuals can register as attendees, churches can become partner churches for discounted member registration, ministry organizations can register as exhibitors or sponsors, and supporters can give financially through the convention’s donation page. Those looking to participate can also review the convention book, workshop schedule, lodging details, and official social media page. Overall, the Missouri Christian Convention presents itself as a statewide event platform for encouragement, training, and connection among churches and ministry leaders.

The ministry seeks to make disciples through authentic and intentional relationships, plant healthy missional churches that can reproduce, and build networks of churches and organizations that provide personnel, accountability, financial support, and encouragement for new church plants.
The organization’s strategy emphasizes that church planting should grow out of discipleship rather than operate as a separate program. Plant Utah describes disciple-making as foundational to both planting and growing churches. Its approach is relational, intentional, Gospel-centered, and missional, with discipleship taking place through relationships, homes, accountability, modeling, and teaching.
Plant Utah also invites churches and individuals to participate in its work through several pathways. These include joining a church planting network, joining a church planting team, supporting missionaries and church planters, exploring church planting in Utah, joining the prayer team, applying for a church planting residency, and participating in ministry internships. Internships are designed for men and women who want hands-on ministry experience, intentional discipleship, and practical skill development in Utah church planting contexts.
People can engage with Plant Utah by praying, giving, joining a church planting team, supporting church planters, applying for a residency or internship, subscribing for updates, or contacting the ministry about partnership. Its distinct contribution is a Utah-focused church planting network centered on relational disciple-making, local church multiplication, and Gospel witness in less-reached communities.

Seoul Christian University (SCU) — Organization Profile Seoul Christian University (SCU) is a private Christian university located in Eunpyeong-gu, Seoul, South Korea, and historically connected with the Churches of Christ in Korea. The university is known in Korean as 서울기독대학교 and is listed among member schools of the Korean Association of Accredited Theological Schools (KAATS), reflecting its place within Korea’s Christian higher-education landscape. SCU traces its origins to 1937, when it began as a theological training work associated with missionary efforts linked to the Churches of Christ.

Seoul Christian University (SCU) — Organization Profile
Seoul Christian University (SCU) is a private Christian university located in Eunpyeong-gu, Seoul, South Korea, and historically connected with the Churches of Christ in Korea. The university is known in Korean as 서울기독대학교 and is listed among member schools of the Korean Association of Accredited Theological Schools (KAATS), reflecting its place within Korea’s Christian higher-education landscape.
SCU traces its origins to 1937, when it began as a theological training work associated with missionary efforts linked to the Churches of Christ. Over time, the institution developed through organizational changes and consolidations in Christian education in Korea, eventually taking shape as a recognized private university in Seoul. Public historical summaries note multiple stages of development, including the merging of predecessor schools and later institutional expansion.
As a faith-based institution, SCU emphasizes education formed by Christian belief and ministry preparation while also operating as a university with broader academic aims. Its KAATS member-school profile identifies its denominational affiliation and leadership, and it publicly lists its Seoul campus location and primary contact channels. This placement in northwestern Seoul (Eunpyeong-gu) situates the university within a dense urban setting that is accessible to students living in Seoul and the surrounding metro region.
SCU serves students through higher education shaped by Christian worldview formation and theological heritage, with programs and campus life that reflect its institutional identity. While detailed department-level program descriptions are primarily communicated through the university’s official website, external institutional profiles consistently describe SCU as a Seoul-based private university with Christian foundations and ongoing theological connections through Korean Christian education networks.
People can engage with Seoul Christian University in practical ways such as exploring the university’s official web presence for academic and admissions information, connecting by phone for inquiries, and following official communications through its public channels. For churches and ministry leaders, SCU also represents one avenue for identifying Christian higher-education pathways tied to the Churches of Christ tradition in Korea, including leadership development and theological education within an accredited-school association context.

Kontaktmission — Organization Profile
Kontaktmission USA is a Christian mission organization based in Humboldt, Tennessee, connected with the international Kontaktmission movement headquartered in Germany. The organization describes itself as a networked mission movement that empowers Christians worldwide to live out their God-given callings and sends them out for the building up of Christ’s church.
The organization’s core focus is sending missionaries, planting churches, training leaders, and multiplying self-supporting churches in areas with little or no Christian witness. Kontaktmission’s mission is summarized as “Send. Plant. Multiply.” Its public materials describe a purpose of sending missionaries to places with limited Christian witness, training and supporting local workers, and establishing churches that can eventually send missionaries to plant more churches.
Kontaktmission serves from Humboldt, Tennessee, with ministry connected to Europe, Eastern Europe, and other countries through an intentionally multinational team. Its U.S. site emphasizes partnership with the international team in Europe and describes Europe as a major ministry focus. Kontaktmission USA exists as a platform for sending American missionaries and involving American churches and individuals in the wider mission movement.
The organization operates through full-time missionary sending, short-term trips and internships, training, church planting, pioneering ministry, networking, leadership development, and support for local workers. Its core-values materials describe church planting as its primary objective, while also noting evangelistic and support ministries, assistance for local believers, training for churches and small groups, and leadership education that can include Bible schools where needed.
A distinctive part of Kontaktmission’s model is connecting missionaries, churches, local believers, and ministry partners across national and cultural lines for more effective church planting and gospel work. Its materials emphasize flexibility, creativity, partnership, local decision-making, and cooperation with existing ministries rather than isolated work. Kontaktmission also highlights the value of helping Christians discern their calling and find places to serve according to their gifts and preparation.
People can engage with Kontaktmission by praying, giving, partnering with the ministry, exploring full-time missionary service, joining a short-term trip or internship, receiving ministry updates, supporting Ukraine relief, or contacting staff about training and partnership. Churches and individuals can also support missionaries, request information about European missions, and participate in the organization’s broader work of sending, planting, and multiplying.

Church of Christ Plants — Organization Profile
Church of Christ Plants is a missions and church-planting effort formed in 2014 by Bill Stewart and Pam Stewart with a stated mission of reaching souls with the gospel of Jesus Christ in places where there is not a church of Christ. The ministry works with a traveling team that conducts evangelism, Bible studies, and follow-up support aimed at establishing new congregations and strengthening local leadership.
The work is administered under the oversight of the Wynne Church of Christ in Wynne, Arkansas, and it operates with a global scope. Rather than focusing on one region, Church of Christ Plants describes a pattern of going where opportunities are available, especially where long-term local congregations are not yet established. This includes international outreach that has involved locations such as Ulyanovsk, Russia and Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, among other places where the team has sought to encourage new congregations and discipleship.
A distinctive part of Church of Christ Plants’ approach is its partnership with World English Institute (WEI). Through this relationship, the team connects with students who have been learning English through Bible-based materials and then arranges in-person receptions and conversational Bible studies in those cities. The goal is not only to teach, but to help seekers understand and respond to the gospel, and to connect new believers to ongoing discipleship and local church life.
Church of Christ Plants also describes its field strategy as using Pauline mission methodology—teaching the gospel, identifying potential local leaders, and training them to preach and evangelize in their own country. The team notes that they may return to previously established areas to encourage and support the developing congregation. This emphasis on local leadership development is intended to help new works continue beyond the short-term presence of a visiting team.
Individuals and churches can engage with Church of Christ Plants by learning about its mission, following newsletters and updates, praying for open doors and local leadership development, and supporting the travel and ministry costs connected with international trips. The organization also shares stories and summaries of its work through its website resources, including pages highlighting locations where congregations have been planted or encouraged.

White Fields Overseas Evangelism — Organization Profile
White Fields Overseas Evangelism is a Christian missions organization established to spread the gospel message of Jesus Christ to every nation. The ministry takes its name and focus from John 4:35 and Luke 10:2, emphasizing the biblical image of fields ready for harvest and the need for workers to go into that harvest. Its stated approach is non-denominational in structure and patterned after the New Testament church.
The ministry was founded by Reggie Thomas, who dedicated his work to overseas evangelism with the goal of taking the Great Commission seriously across national and cultural boundaries. White Fields describes its work as reaching the world with the good news that Jesus brings eternal life in relationship with the one true God. Its ministry identity includes evangelism, church planting, teaching, prayer for unreached peoples, and practical care for vulnerable children.
White Fields Overseas Evangelism is publicly connected with Joplin, Missouri, and describes its work as international in scope. Its website lists ministry activity in many countries and regions, including Haiti, India, Liberia, Cuba, Uganda, Antigua, the Philippines, and other nations. The organization emphasizes support for native or national evangelists who can work within their own cultural settings, often with fewer resources than foreign missionaries would require.
A central part of the ministry’s strategy is supporting native evangelists and helping plant churches in unreached nations, villages, and peoples. White Fields states that it partners with evangelists, matches them with sponsors, and encourages prayer and monthly support. The ministry also provides resources such as sermons, articles, International Bible School lessons, Muslim teaching lessons, newsletters, and a World Prayer Map focused on reached and unreached nations.
White Fields also includes White Fields Orphanage Ministries, a children’s ministry connected to the organization’s overseas work. The ministry’s official materials describe orphanage support in countries such as Haiti, India, and Liberia. This work has included feeding, housing, educating, and caring for children through partner homes and orphanage ministries, alongside the evangelistic and church-planting focus of the organization.
People can engage with White Fields Overseas Evangelism by praying for unreached nations, supporting national evangelists, giving toward ministry work, using its teaching and prayer resources, contacting the ministry about opportunities to help, or partnering with White Fields Orphanage Ministries. The organization’s “What Can I Do?” materials encourage Christians and churches to select nations for prayer, identify contacts, support evangelists, and help launch new churches where no New Testament church is present.

Abilene Christian University Press (ACU Press) is a university press connected with Abilene Christian University (ACU) that publishes books for Christian faith formation, scholarship, and ministry. Through its publishing program and online storefront, ACU Press releases titles that serve both the academy and the church, with subject areas that include Christian faith and theology, leadership and ministry, and regional and cultural history. The press also oversees the trade imprint Leafwood Publishers, expanding its reach to a broader readership through accessible, church-facing titles.
ACU Press states its mission as reflecting the standards of its parent institution and spreading ACU’s values to a broad public audience. Historically, the press began when James Fullbright acquired the rights to Biblical Research Press, a publishing effort developed by retired ACU professor J. D. Thomas. Early goals included producing resources that would support churches and advance scholarship among Churches of Christ, and over time the press expanded its vision to grow as a nationally recognized academic press while maintaining its roots in the Stone-Campbell faith tradition.
Today, ACU Press and Leafwood Publishers organize their catalog through accessible pathways for readers and churches—such as categories for Academics, Christian Faith, Small Groups, and Regional titles—making it easier for leaders and educators to find resources suited for classrooms, church study, and personal discipleship. ACU Press also notes that it operates its own warehouse and offers discounts for churches and ministry groups, reflecting an ongoing commitment to equipping congregations with usable materials.
The publishing program is supported by a small team, with public staff listings that include Dr. Jason Fikes as Director, along with roles in sales and operations, office management, and warehousing. For authors and educators, ACU Press provides dedicated resource areas (including sections oriented toward authors and professors), and it offers a rights and permissions pathway for licensing and translation requests through an external rights management partner.
ACU Press is based in Abilene, Texas, with its mailing address listed as ACU Box 29138, Abilene, TX 79699. While its institutional home is ACU, its books are distributed broadly through multiple channels and are positioned for use by churches, ministry leaders, educators, and readers across the United States and beyond. People can engage with ACU Press by exploring new releases, selecting small-group studies and ministry resources for congregational use, adopting titles for courses, and connecting with the press for customer service or publishing inquiries.

Tri-Cities School of Preaching & Christian Development — Organization Profile
Tri-Cities School of Preaching & Christian Development (TCSOP&CD) is a church-supported ministry training school based in Elizabethton, Tennessee, operating under the oversight of the Stoney Creek Church of Christ. Established in August 2001, the school exists to address what it identifies as a widespread need for stronger Bible knowledge and to help develop workers who can teach Scripture faithfully in local congregations and evangelistic settings.
The core emphasis at Tri-Cities is training men to preach while also equipping Christians who want deeper Bible understanding for teaching, leadership, and service. The school describes its work as preparing “men of the Book,” with instruction intended to strengthen biblical literacy, sound doctrine, and effective communication of the gospel. In addition to classroom study, students are given opportunities to build practical ministry skills through preaching development, writing, and structured outreach.
Tri-Cities offers a Two-Year Bible Emphasis designed for intensive study, along with a Third Year Apologetics option for students who want additional training in defending the faith and addressing common doctrinal challenges. Beyond residential participation, the school provides free distance-learning courses through an online course catalog, enabling students and church members to enroll and learn without relocating.
A distinctive feature of the program is its media and communication component. Training includes practicing written and digital evangelism, supported by the school’s H.W. Simons Production Studios, where students can gain experience connected with teaching media. The school also maintains public-facing teaching content and media initiatives that extend learning beyond the campus setting.
Tri-Cities hosts an annual Lectureship held on the first full week of April, featuring lessons built around a theme and delivered by students, alumni, and invited speakers. The school’s broader teaching outreach includes Arise to Truth Radio, a live call-in Bible program produced from the school’s facilities and aired Tuesdays and Thursdays (2:00–3:00 PM Eastern). Together, these efforts reflect a strategy of combining structured training with ongoing encouragement and resources for churches and individuals.
People can engage with Tri-Cities by applying to the program, enrolling in free online courses, attending the Lectureship, and supporting students and school operations through giving. Churches can partner by recommending prospective students, providing speaking opportunities, and helping supply practical needs that support those in training.

Does God Exist? — Organization Profile
Does God Exist? is a Christian apologetics and education ministry founded by John N. Clayton in 1968. The ministry’s stated purpose is to show that science and faith are friends, not enemies. Its materials are written for seekers, skeptics, students, teachers, churches, and Christians who want evidence-based answers to questions about God, creation, the Bible, suffering, and Christian belief.
The ministry is connected with Niles and Buchanan, Michigan, and South Bend, Indiana, with its online work serving readers, churches, students, and families across the United States and worldwide. Through Does God Exist? Today, the ministry publishes regular articles under the theme “Evidence for God in the Things He Has Made,” drawing attention to design, purpose, morality, archaeology, Scripture, and the natural world.
Does God Exist? grew out of Clayton’s own journey from atheism to Christian faith through his study of science and the Bible. Clayton spent his career as a public high school science teacher and has traveled nationally and internationally to present the message of faith in the God of creation. The ministry’s work is not primarily church programming or local service, but apologetics education through publications, daily posts, videos, audio lessons, correspondence courses, and study materials.
The ministry publishes a quarterly magazine and provides books, pamphlets, charts, archives, and other teaching resources. Does God Exist? Today also points readers to video and audio resources at DoesGodExist.tv, including the basic Does God Exist? video series with John Clayton and the Beyond Reasonable Doubt series with John Cooper on biblical archaeology, the reliability of Scripture, and the divinity of Jesus.
Educational resources include three free correspondence courses, including a basic course, an intermediate course, and a 13-lesson archaeology course, along with other courses such as a substance abuse course. The ministry also maintains resource archives at DoesGodExist.org and provides special materials on pain and suffering through WhyPain.org. Its stated objective is to educate people and help them know why they believe what they believe, while persuading readers that science and faith are symbiotic rather than adversarial.
People can engage with Does God Exist? by reading daily posts, subscribing for updates, using the resource archives, watching videos, listening to audio lessons, taking correspondence courses, ordering materials, sharing articles with students or small groups, asking questions by email, following the Facebook page, or giving financially. Donations and materials are handled online through PowerVine Store, which features resources from the Does God Exist? ministry.

Shepherds Global Classroom — Organization Profile
Shepherds Global Classroom, also known as SGC, is a Christian training ministry that provides free Christ-centered theological curriculum for emerging pastors, missionaries, and Christian leaders around the world. Its motto is “Christ-centered. Training. Everywhere.” The ministry exists to equip the body of Christ by providing curriculum for leaders who may not have access to formal theological education.
The organization is connected with Cincinnati, Ohio, and serves Christian leaders in more than 100 countries through online courses, downloadable curriculum, translations, audio resources, mobile app access, and training partnerships. SGC’s materials are especially designed for places where pastors and church leaders are under-resourced but eager for biblical and theological training.
Shepherds Global Classroom began in 2012 after founder Tim Keep and other missionary trainers taught pastors and lay leaders in East Africa. The experience revealed a need for theological resources that were robust, simple, reproducible, and adaptable to local settings. SGC developed to meet that need by creating curriculum that local leaders can use in homes, churches, cafés, refugee camps, Bible schools, seminaries, and informal classrooms.
The ministry’s curriculum includes 20 foundational courses for a two- to three-year non-formal theological training program. Course areas include Doctrinal Foundations, Bible Survey, Evangelism and Discipleship, Christian Leadership, Church History, and SGC Resources. Courses include topics such as Christian Beliefs, Romans, Eschatology, Exploring the Old Testament, Exploring the New Testament, Biblical Evangelism and Discipleship, Spiritual Formation, Ministry Leadership, The Life and Ministry of Jesus, Principles of Communication, Introduction to Christian Worship, and Survey of Church History.
A major distinctive of Shepherds Global Classroom is its emphasis on free access and broad translation. The curriculum is available digitally at no cost, and the ministry allows printing and distribution under its stated guidelines. SGC makes courses available in more than 30 languages, including English, French, Arabic, Russian, Chinese, Spanish, Tagalog, Portuguese, Thai, Kiswahili, Nepali, Hindi, Romanian, Ukrainian, Urdu, Amharic, Turkish, Haitian Creole, Polish, and others.
People can engage with Shepherds Global Classroom by downloading courses, using the mobile app, launching a local classroom, requesting a Memorandum of Understanding for group printing and distribution, subscribing to updates, donating, or connecting with the ministry about training partnerships. Its distinct contribution is free, reproducible theological curriculum that helps local Christian leaders establish indigenous, informal, and non-formal Bible training programs worldwide.

Reach Nebraska — Organization Profile
Reach Nebraska is a church-planting ministry focused on reaching Nebraska for Jesus by planting regional churches. Its public materials describe a mission centered on planting churches that make disciples, develop leaders, and transform communities. Rather than presenting church planting as a one-time launch effort, Reach Nebraska frames its work as a long-term ministry strategy for establishing healthy congregations that can serve their local areas and multiply over time.
The organization’s core focus is church multiplication across Nebraska. On its About page, Reach Nebraska describes a vision for a network of healthy churches across the state that proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, make disciples who make disciples, develop leaders, serve their communities, and multiply into new churches. That statewide vision shows that its work is not limited to a single city but is intended to support gospel-centered church planting in a wide range of settings.
Reach Nebraska specifically serves Nebraska’s cities, towns, and rural communities, giving it a broad statewide Nebraska scope. Its strategy is built around regional church planting, practical support, and collaboration with churches and ministry partners. The ministry also offers a Residency pathway designed to train future church planters and ministry leaders through hands-on ministry involvement and preparation for long-term service. In that sense, Reach Nebraska combines immediate church-planting efforts with leadership development for future multiplication.
The organization’s public values also help explain how it operates. Reach Nebraska emphasizes being gospel-centered, church-focused, relational, multiplying, and missional. Those commitments shape its partnerships and its understanding of the local church as the primary setting for disciple-making and community ministry. Its approach appears designed to encourage churches that are not only locally rooted but also capable of planting additional churches in the future.
Reach Nebraska is led by Mike Moser, who serves as Director. According to the organization’s About page, Moser is a graduate of Nebraska Christian College and the founding pastor of Connection Christian Church in Columbus, Nebraska. The site says he has a deep love for the local church and a passion for helping people encounter Jesus in life-changing ways. Reach Nebraska also lists a board of directors that provides wisdom, accountability, and support for its church-planting efforts.
People can engage with Reach Nebraska in several practical ways. The organization invites supporters to partner by praying, giving, and sending leaders to support church planting. It also highlights Projects that support ongoing church plant initiatives across the state and a Residency opportunity for those who want to train as church planters and serve in ministry. For readers interested in regional church planting in Nebraska and leadership development for future church planters, Reach Nebraska presents a collaborative, statewide model for planting and strengthening churches.

iHOPE Ministries — Organization Profile
iHOPE Ministries is a Christian nonprofit with mailing operations in Garland, Texas. The organization exists to ignite and equip believers and churches to boldly reveal Christ across faiths. Its public vision is a movement of believers revealing Christ to the world, with a focus on helping everyday Christians share Jesus with clarity, compassion, and confidence.
The organization’s core focus is equipping churches, women, families, youth, and individual believers to share Jesus across cultures, faiths, and everyday relationships. iHOPE Ministries works especially in the discipleship gap where many Christians want to share their faith but feel unprepared to engage neighbors from different religious or cultural backgrounds. Its approach emphasizes Scripture-rooted discipleship, Spirit-led witness, relational courage, and practical training.
iHOPE Ministries serves believers and churches across North America, while focusing on gospel witness among people from least-reached nations who now live in local communities as refugees, immigrants, international students, neighbors, coworkers, classmates, and friends. Its public materials name Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and other-faith neighbors as part of the ministry context it helps Christians engage with wisdom and love.
The organization operates through discipleship pathways, books, podcasts, church resources, speaking, online learning, and training experiences. Its ETHNOS Course™ is a discipleship pathway that helps individuals, small groups, youth, outreach teams, and churches share Jesus across cultures and faiths. The course uses short teaching videos, Scripture, real-life stories, practical application, group discussion, and action steps to help participants move from fear and uncertainty toward faithful witness.
A distinctive part of iHOPE Ministries’ work is forming everyday believers for cross-cultural gospel witness rather than only providing evangelism information. Its Blue Cord™ initiative equips women to live courageously as authentic witnesses in daily life and to model faith-sharing for the next generation. The Blue Cord includes a book, podcast, group study, conference, and related resources connected with Karen Bejjani’s work with women and families.
People can engage with iHOPE Ministries by taking the ETHNOS Course, bringing ETHNOS to a church, using The Blue Cord resources, listening to the podcast, reading iHOPE books, joining the email community, inviting the ministry to speak, praying, giving, or sharing resources with a church or small group. Donors can support the ministry online or by mail, helping iHOPE equip more believers to share Christ across cultures and faiths.

Key Communications — Organization Profile
Key Communications is a Christian media and outreach ministry connected with Portland, Oregon. The organization focuses on proclaiming Christ to Urdu-speaking people, especially those whose roots are in the Islamic tradition. Its public theme is “Proclaiming a Message of Hope to a Dark World,” and its ministry has grown from gospel radio programs first produced in Pakistan in the Urdu language in 1971.
The organization’s core focus is providing Urdu-language gospel broadcasting, Christian literature, seeker resources, and follow-up for people considering Christ. Key Communications states that it exists to provide people, particularly those from a Muslim background, with enough information to make an intelligent decision about accepting Christ, to help those who accept Christ form congregations, and to equip congregations to replicate themselves.
Key Communications serves Urdu-speaking audiences globally, with historic and continuing emphasis on Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India. The ministry broadcasts into South Asia by radio and reaches listeners worldwide through internet streaming and online resources. Its materials describe daily medium-wave programs, streaming listeners from more than 130 countries, and outreach to people in places the ministry cannot personally visit.
The organization operates through several connected media and discipleship tools. It produces audio programming and literature in Urdu, broadcasts into South Asia by radio, broadcasts online, maintains the Urdu/English seeker website Awaz-e-Haq, replies personally to listener contacts, sends Christian literature, speaks and trains indigenous churches, and educates followers of Christ about interacting with Muslims. Its media page also notes broadcasts into Pakistan through Trans World Radio and resources for listeners in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India.
A distinctive part of Key Communications’ work is combining gospel broadcasting with personal follow-up, printed and digital Urdu resources, church training, and local outreach. Its history began with Lee Turner’s missionary work in Pakistan, where he recorded teaching for people who could not read and later prepared radio programs for the Far East Broadcasting Association. After returning to the United States in 1976, Lee founded Key Communications to continue the Urdu gospel work that began in Pakistan.
People can engage with Key Communications by praying, giving, using or sharing the Awaz-e-Haq resources, contacting the ministry, inviting conversation about Urdu outreach, or supporting the production of radio programs and literature. Donations help cover program production, literature, airtime, website resources, travel, and communication with listeners and inquirers. The ministry’s public updates also invite supporters to follow news about broadcasting, publishing, outreach in Pakistan, and training opportunities connected with the International Conference on Missions.

Christian Financial Resources — Organization Profile
Christian Financial Resources (CFR) is a nonprofit financial ministry based in Lake Mary, Florida that serves independent Christian Churches and their associated ministries. CFR’s stated mission is “Funding Ministry… Changing Lives.” Through a combination of investment offerings, ministry lending, and stewardship services, CFR helps connect Christian investors and donors with churches and ministry projects that need capital to move forward.
A primary focus of CFR’s work is ministry lending for church and ministry facilities. According to CFR’s materials, funded projects have included land acquisitions, refinances, and construction or improvement of buildings such as churches, parsonages, schools, and other ministry facilities. By providing loan options for purchases, refinances, and construction, CFR aims to support congregations and related ministries as they plan for growth and long-term sustainability.
CFR also offers investment opportunities designed to provide interest income while supplying funding for ministry loans. Options described by CFR include a Ready Access Certificate (a demand investment designed for accessibility) as well as time-based certificates and IRA-related services (including IRA transfers). In addition to supporting ministry projects, these investment programs are presented as a way for individuals and households to put savings and retirement assets to work in alignment with stewardship values.
Beyond loans and investments, CFR provides strategic stewardship services intended to help individuals and families plan and give thoughtfully. CFR’s stewardship offerings include Giving Funds (donor-advised funds), charitable gift annuities, legacy planning, and support for capital campaigns and generosity initiatives. These services are positioned to help donors organize charitable giving, plan long-term generosity, and support ministries across the United States.
People can engage with CFR in several practical ways: churches and ministries can explore financing for property purchase, refinance, or construction needs; individuals can consider investment and IRA options; and donors can establish Giving Funds or explore legacy and planned giving tools. CFR also publishes resources and updates through its website, including organizational information, program details, and reporting materials.

Johnson University — Organization Profile
Johnson University (often called JU) is a private Christian university located in Knoxville, Tennessee, serving students through residential and online degree options. Johnson describes itself as a Christ-centered community where students grow in faith, deepen purpose, and prepare for meaningful service in their careers and in the world. The university’s mission is to educate and develop students who advance the worldwide mission of Christ through their lives, ministries, and careers.
Founded in 1893 by Ashley and Emma Johnson, the school’s history includes earlier names such as the School of Evangelists (1893) and Johnson Bible College (1909), before becoming Johnson University in 2011. Johnson’s institutional story emphasizes continuity in Christian formation and affordability, while expanding academic scope and degree delivery over time. The university also notes that it acquired Florida Christian College in 2013 and later closed the Kissimmee campus in 2024 due to sustainability challenges.
Johnson’s academic identity is shaped by its commitment to biblical formation alongside professional preparation. One distinctive Johnson highlights is a dual-major approach, where students complete a major in Bible & Theology along with a major of their choice. The university organizes programs across multiple academic schools, supporting students pursuing church ministry and missions as well as education, leadership, counseling-related pathways, and other career directions.
Campus life is tied closely to Johnson’s formation goals, combining community rhythms, spiritual development, and student support resources. The Tennessee campus sits along the French Broad River in south Knoxville, positioning students in a rural-style campus environment while remaining within reach of Knoxville and the Smoky Mountains region. Alongside on-campus life, Johnson also offers online programs designed for students who need flexibility due to work, family, or ministry responsibilities.
People can engage Johnson University in several ways. Prospective students can explore admissions resources, request information, and connect with the admissions team by phone or email. Churches and ministry partners often connect with Johnson through student internships, ministry preparation, and pathways that prepare graduates for congregational and mission service. Supporters can participate through giving opportunities that help fund scholarships and student success initiatives aligned with the university’s mission.

Joshua Ministerial Conference & Conclave — Organization Profile
Joshua Ministerial Conference & Conclave is an annual ministry conference connected with Dr. Jeremy J. Flowers, Sr.’s preaching and leadership work and hosted through Gray Road Church of Christ in Cincinnati, Ohio. Public event materials describe it as a gathering designed to strengthen and encourage ministers and church workers through preaching, teaching, worship, and fellowship. Its public-facing content consistently presents the conference as a place where Gospel preachers, worship leaders, and ministry spouses can gather for development, encouragement, and shared ministry experience.
The conference’s mission appears in the way it is promoted year after year. Public posts for the event describe a focus on empowering and developing Gospel preachers, worship leaders, and their spouses, while livestream archives show a structured conference environment with themed sessions, featured speakers, and worship-centered programming. Conference videos and event promotions indicate that the gathering is more than a single service; it functions as a multi-day experience that combines keynote preaching, live worship, and special sessions under a unifying biblical theme. Recent conference programming has included themes such as I Still Believe and Let Freedom Ring, reflecting a sermon-driven and Scripture-centered approach.
Joshua Ministerial Conference & Conclave serves ministry participants primarily through Cincinnati, Ohio, the Cincinnati metropolitan area, and Northern Kentucky, while also drawing guests and speakers from other cities. Video titles and event postings show participation from ministers representing places such as Dallas, Fort Worth, Tampa, Chicago, and Louisville. That geographic pattern suggests a conference rooted in a local congregation but designed for a broader network of ministers, worship leaders, and churches. Because the event is livestreamed and promoted online, its reach extends beyond those who attend in person and allows other viewers to access selected conference sessions digitally.
Operationally, the conference works through hosted services, livestreamed sessions, speaker features, and event registration tools. Gray Road Church of Christ provides the host setting and media channels, while conference-related promotions tied to Dr. Flowers and the church help direct attendees to registration and conference updates. Public materials also show vendor registration and scholarship or sponsorship appeals connected to certain conference years, indicating that the event includes practical support structures beyond the preaching program itself. Those details point to a conference model that blends ministry content with logistical planning for attendees, participants, and supporters.
People can engage with Joshua Ministerial Conference & Conclave in several ways. Prospective attendees can follow the host church’s website, calendar, and media channels for updates; watch livestreamed sessions on YouTube; and monitor official social channels for announcements. Supporters may also respond to conference-related sponsorship opportunities when publicly posted. For ministers, worship leaders, and ministry spouses seeking biblical encouragement, ministry development, and connection with a wider preaching and worship network, Joshua Ministerial Conference & Conclave offers a recurring gathering centered on preaching, worship, and fellowship under the leadership of Dr. Jeremy J. Flowers, Sr. and the ministry context of Gray Road Church of Christ in Cincinnati.

CMF International — Organization Profile
CMF International (also known as Christian Missionary Fellowship International, CMF Missions) is a global missions organization that works to create dynamic, Christ-centered communities that transform the world. For more than 75 years, CMF has helped send and support missionaries serving across cultures and communities, partnering with local Christians and churches to pursue long-term, reproducible ministry.
CMF’s home office is based in Indianapolis, Indiana, and its teams serve across 26 countries and regions worldwide. Current ministry locations span places such as Kenya, Ethiopia, India, Thailand, Spain, Australia, and Ukraine, along with broader regions including West Africa and the Middle East/North Africa. This geographic breadth reflects CMF’s emphasis on collaborative, on-the-ground teams that plan and carry out ministry alongside national leaders and local congregations.
A key distinctive of CMF is its focus on four interrelated ministry strategies. First, CMF supports church-planting efforts that aim to develop disciples and leaders who can multiply new faith communities—often through mentoring and leadership training. In multiple contexts, CMF has helped establish leadership training centers that strengthen Bible knowledge and practical ministry skills so that local leaders can guide churches toward maturity and reproduction.
Second, CMF’s Marketplace Ministries place working professionals in roles and settings where traditional mission access can be limited. These teams pursue holistic ministry and development through education, business, and community engagement—sometimes helping disciple and train local entrepreneurs toward “Kingdom businesses” that contribute to spiritual and economic transformation. Third, through Globalscope, CMF welcomes university students into community on international campuses where Christian ministries may be difficult to find. Globalscope emphasizes open, relational community where students can ask hard questions while experiencing Christian hospitality and witness.
Fourth, CMF’s holistic poverty-focused ministries address practical needs while integrating gospel-centered discipleship. CMF describes work such as education and community sponsorship (including support like education, nutrition, and medical care where possible), microfinance and Village Savings and Loans, Community Health Evangelism (CHE), medical ministry, and water projects that expand access to safe water and support community resilience.
CMF also describes itself as a “full-service” missions organization, providing support before, during, and after intercultural service. This includes assessment for field fit, training and coaching for support-raising, help with documentation such as visas and permits, financial accounting services, and member care that can include counseling and crisis support. People interested in serving can explore multiple pathways—from REACH (an 8-week intercultural internship) and an Exchange Semester, to the EQUIP Experience (a 10-month program in England) and long-term service. Others can engage by praying, partnering as a sending church, or giving to specific people and projects or broader needs.
