OUR STORY

Jim Applegate grew up knowing that God had called him into ministry. After starting a business during seminary to pay the bills, Jim stayed in business for another 15 years before being called to plant a church. The unique experience of having seminary training and business experience gave Jim a love for building gospel centered organizational structure that helps pastors and leaders Engage the Church.

 
 

A PITCH TO CHURCH LEADERS

Smaller and midsize churches often struggle from the same simple issue - an inability to overcome organizational complexities. Pastors are preaching well, people are loving each other, but because of a lack of organizational structure and clarity, well meaning people don’t know how to do their part in the work of the ministry. This is where Engage the Church can help.

A PITCH TO BUSINESS LEADERS

Business leaders understand organizational structure, often seeing the need for it long before their church leadership. This is not surprising since these things are rarely taught in seminaries. If you think your church leadership could be encouraged by having Engage the Church work alongside them, consider sponsoring a course or a coaching weekend.
