This week Stadia’s Leadership Team joined other Provision Ministry Group leaders to strategize how God can change the world through us.
Provision provides direction, leadership and support to a related group of non-profit ministries that serve Christian churches and ministries around the world. It’s really an honor for Stadia to be part of the Provision Ministry Group family. The collective wisdom, experience and vision of these world-changers makes Stadia – and thus our church planting mission – stronger and more effective.
Let me tell you about these ministries:
BUILDING/ARCHITECTURAL EVANGELISM
Visioneering Studios is often called the most revolutionary ministry in the Provision Family. Visioneering is a unique design-based ministry, established in 2002 to expand CDF’s commitment to “helping people build churches and helping churches build people.” Already their passion for creating environments with eternal impact is connecting with the hearts of church leaders everywhere.
FUNDING LOANS & INVESTMENTS
For nearly 60 years Church Development Fund has provided financing for the expansion, building and growth of churches and ministries all across the United States, thanks to thousands of individuals who have invested approximately $650 million. CDF also supports the church planting ministry of Stadia through annual grants from their multi-million-dollar church planting fund.
COACHING, STAFFING & LEADERSHIP
Slingshot Group helps churches find great leaders. We staff in the areas of senior leadership, worship, tech arts, youth, children & families, communications, and more. Not only do we help churches find great leaders…we help great leaders become even better! Wherever we’re at, whether in the prime of our life or stuck in a rut, we need that “someone” who can launch us like a slingshot toward our true potential farther than we could on our own. That’s what a coach does.
STRENGTHENING DONOR ADVISED FUNDS & PLANNED GIVING
The Co:Mission Foundation provides donor advised funds and other planned giving products and services to Kingdom-minded individuals interested in accelerating Kingdom results.
REGENERATING COUNSEL & CARE FOR DECLINING CHURCHES
