Vision and Strategy

OUR VISION

Our God-sized dream is to walk with 1,000 church planters from their first service to their first facility. This vision will require us to raise $1 billion for the expansion of the Kingdom of Heaven.

Our First Step

Every audacious goal has a first step to be taken. Here are ours: By the end of 2027 we will

  • Plant 60 churches.

  • Raise $3 million in our first capital campaign.

Our Strategy

FUNDRAISING COACHING

We train church planters how to raise money. Many people are gifted pastors and evangelists, but they’ve never been taught how to raise the money for their new ministries. We train planters how to appropriately fund their ministries from day one.

EARLY FUNDING

We provide $2,000/month for up to three years for a new church ($72,000 in total). This funding sustains the budget of the new church in the early days while the tithes and offerings slowly grow. The church agrees to invest 5% of their tithes and offerings back into the 99 Network until they’ve “recycled” the money they’ve been given.

SYSTEMS TRAINING

We teach new pastors about the systems and processes that will scale their ministries. We host a monthly zoom call  on topics like board development, pastoral care, hiring new staff, discipleship systems, financial management, etc. Pastors who join us will have the tools to help their churches grow.

MAJOR GIFT

The biggest struggle a church plant ever faces is the transition from a portable facility into a permanent home. We provide a major gift at the moment when a church is launching their first capital campaign to acquire the right facility. This gift will range from $300,000 - $500,000. This is not a loan - it is a gift designed to propel the new church into long-term, sustainable ministry.
