Master Plan for Ministry

The Master Plan training series is a sequence of eight instruction sessions that walk through a biblical strategic planning process for discipleship in local church ministry.  While the video content is primarily voiced for student ministry teams, the strategic approach is relevant to any subset of local church ministry or to the entire ministry mix of a local church body.

Whether you attend a live Master Plan seminar or you walk your team through the online or DVD training series, the biblical ministry philosophy and practical skill set they gain will make an immediate impact on your ministry environment.  It’s personal.  It’s accessible.  It’s actionable.

Seminar sessions are interspersed with “SHOP TIME” breakout sessions designed to kick-start the process for ministry teams.  They provide powerful tools for developing and onboarding key volunteer ministry leaders.

The Master Plan Digital Edition gives you instant online access to all 8 videos (over 6 hours of training!), plus the bonus Q&A session AND download access to the complete Leader Toolbox… right here on this page.
