The VISION
You can go anywhere in the world today and
ask the leaders of the church,
"What is the greatest need for the
Body of Christ in your nation?"
You'll get the same answer, no matter where you go:
"LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT"
The SINGULAR FOCUS of Strategic Impact is
the completion of the Great Commission:
Giving all 7 Billion people alive on earth today a
clear presentation of the Gospel, by igniting a
Self-Multiplying, Church-Planting Movement
among every people group on earth.
But HOW will the Great Commission be fulfilled?
WHAT will it take?

The MISSION
To train leaders who make multiplying disciples who will launch a church planting movement among every people group in order to fulfill the Great Commission.
"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age." - Matthew 28:18-20
|
The STRATEGY
To multiply church planting disciples in every major city of the 12 major regions of the world.
"(Paul) took the disciples with him and had discussions daily in the lecture hall of Tyrannus. This went on for two years, so that all the Jews and Greeks who lived in the province of heard the word of the Lord." - Acts 19:9-10

The PROCESS
I. Vision Seminar (VS) - A one day seminar offered to any pastor of Christian leader in an area. This seminar introduces Strategic Impact and provides sample training in our three areas emphasis:
1. Personal Development
2. Leadership Skills
3. Church Planting Strategy
II. Leadership Thrust (LT) - A week-long intensive training for ~50 invited pastors and leaders committed to fulfilling the Great Commission. The training provides in-depth teaching in the three areas of emphasis along with instruction and experience in the church planting process.
III. School of Multiplying Leaders (SML) - A two-year, Biblically-based, application-driven, and relationally-oriented curriculum for ongoing training in our three areas of emphasis as well as personal accountability, and the multiplication of leaders.
Relational - Each participant meets weekly with a Life
Transformation Group of 3 or 4 for accountability
and encouragement.
Self Taught - "f you can read it, you can lead it."
Though each site has a coordinator to make sure
things progress.
Evangelistic - Each participant seeks to share the
Gospel at least once per week.
Application Oriented - Participants are not allowed to
progress to the next quarter until the lessons
have been implemented.
Ongoing - The training is set up to take place in weekly
meetings over 9 Quarters (2 years, 3 months), with
10 lessons each quarter for a total of 90 lessons.
Multiplication Focused - Before progressing into the
second quarter of training, each leader is to plant a
new Cell Church. Before progressing into the third
quarter, each must recruit at least 2 other leaders to
begin training in the first quarter training material.
Each subsequent leader trained has the same
requirements in order to progress to the second
quarter material.
Expansion Driven - Throughout the process, those
leaders who catch the vision move to new cities
and repeat the strategy there.
IV. Fan-the-Flame Conference (FtFc) - An annual Conference for staff, leaders, and multipliers for feedback, discussion, encouragement, equipping, and strategy held in each major region of the world.
