We help churches take bold next steps

Why this matters

Churches are struggling

Most Pastors need help

Leaders need to engage culture

The Work of Venture Church Network

In the midst of a changing world

Ministry happens through the partnerships of our VCN regions located throughout the country. Each of these regions have specific areas of focus and serve pastors and regional churches in many ways.

  • Gospel Driven

  • Biblically Focused

  • Disciple Making

  • Relationally Committed
