TOOLS TO DISCIPLE ENTREPRENEURS IN YOUR CHURCH

Be the Church for Entrepreneurs in Your City.

No Cost. No Catch. We’re building a network of 250 Committed Partnering Churches to be featured as churches for Entrepreneurs in their area. Use “ready to go” tools and customize a once a year launch event and course for discipling your entrepreneurially minded and connecting your mission to your community.

We’ve made it easy. Serve the entrepreneurs in your church AND city.

As a pastor, you understand the complexity of leading an organization. Every week, you’re balancing preaching and counseling, vision and operations, community impact and internal health, current needs, and future growth. For pastors, as each year passes, you are trying to do more with less.

Your goal hasn’t changed, but the environment around you has.

But what if there’s an untapped resource that won’t cost you more, but could multiply your impact?

Research shows entrepreneurs are trusted 2x more than churches

Sitting in your congregation are leaders who deeply understand your same challenges. They’re building organizations, shaping culture, and influencing tens, hundreds, and thousands through their businesses. Even more remarkable: research shows they’re being invited into rooms where traditional ministry can’t always go. Research shows entrepreneurs are trusted 2x more than churches by the broader community.

Here’s the opportunity:

%

but only 17% feel equipped to guide entrepreneurs.

That’s where we want to help

Built by redemptive entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs, we’ve created everything you need to serve these leaders effectively – proven content, ready-to-use resources, and a model for building authentic community. No cost. No catch. Just a way to help entrepreneurs in your church live out their calling and impact your city.

Why this matters for your church

1. Build Into Your High Capacity Leaders

Growing churches know the power of building into the families that do so much to support the ministry of the Church and lead the businesses of their community. 74% of Christian entrepreneurs credit mentorship for their growth, yet most struggle to find it in church settings.

Our 8-week Foundation Course is just the beginning – we provide ongoing support through annual conferences, regular meetups, and continued learning opportunities that keep entrepreneurs engaged and growing together. When business leaders find true community, their families and employees often follow. We’ll provide both digitial marketing tools along with physical rollup banners.

2. Extend Your Reach in Your City
We regularly communicate with entrepreneurs that have joined groups in over 138 countries. As we invite them to join groups, you will be advertised as the regional rep for the movement. Draw unengaged business leaders within the community to your church. Positioned as the Catalyst of the movement in their community; it’s not just another group launching, it’s an opportunity to have a staple place with the business community.
3. Extend Your Ministry Where People Spend Their Time
Research shows business leaders are trusted 9x more than politicians and 2x more than traditional church voices in the community. By equipping entrepreneurs to live out their faith, you extend your church’s influence through leaders people already know and trust.

Not everyone has a pastor, but everyone has a boss. Your entrepreneurs spend 40+ hours weekly shaping workplace culture and mentoring employees. When equipped with biblical purpose, they become extensions of your ministry where people spend most of their lives.

Common Questions Pastors Ask

How much staff time will this require?
Minimal. The program is designed to be volunteer-led by experienced entrepreneurs in your church. Your staff provides vision oversight while business leaders handle the details.
What's the real cost to our church?
Absolutely nothing. We’re fully funded by generous donors and never ask participating churches for money. We believe in removing every barrier to serving entrepreneurs well.
Will this compete with existing programs?
No – it complements them. When entrepreneurs are engaged and equipped, they become more involved in all areas of church life. They’re more likely to lead, give, and serve across ministries.
How quickly can we start?
Many churches can launch their first group as quickly as 4-6 weeks. We provide everything you need, and our team walks alongside you every step of the way.
What is your theological foundation?
We affirm the historic Christian faith as expressed in the Apostles’ Creed. Our network includes churches from many denominations and traditions who share this common foundation while maintaining their distinct denominational practices. Our content focuses on biblical principles for business and entrepreneurship that resonate across orthodox Christian traditions.

Doing More Together

That’s exactly what Ruach Church in Nairobi, Kenya, achieved in partnership with Faith Driven Entrepreneur. Ruach has led 750 people through FDE’s Foundations Course over three cohorts. Could your church disciple entrepreneurs in the same way?

Grace Church and Grace Enterprises

Green Pastures

How can entrepreneurship transform the way churches tackle homelessness? What started with a single mattress on a church floor in 1999 has grown into a nationwide entrepreneurial venture housing over 1,400 people. Green Pastures created a model where Christians invest to house the homeless, earning returns while serving those in need.

A Platform Designed
for Pastors and Church Leaders

Up to 1 out of 5 people sitting in front of you on any given Sunday morning consider themselves entrepreneurial. This according to a landmark study conducted by Barna and Faith Driven Entrepreneur.

And yet, 99.7% of Christ-following business owners don’t have the community and resources they need to advance God’s Kingdom through their work.

You can help guide entrepreneurs on their journey. And you can offer a place of connection with like-minded people who understand the lonely road they travel.
