 Rediscover the joy of knowing Jesus outside of a role and profession.

Experience the Bible

Live out a simple, biblical way of following Jesus with others, starting in your home.

Empower Others

Raise up disciples who can do the same in their own homes and communities.

You're Not Crazy. You're Not Alone.

We were pastors, too. We asked the same questions you are.
We realized we were maintaining a system more than making disciples.

So we stepped into something new. We started to follow Jesus in simpler ways, where church happens in homes, relationships deepen, and disciples multiply.

We’ve helped many pastors do the same and they are experiencing freedom, joy, and fruit.

What Others Are Saying...

"I no longer feel exhausted trying to meet the endless expectations of the congregation, which kept me busy doing things that didn’t matter. Now, I listen and obey Jesus throughout my day, meet with others as the church in my home, and try to teach others to do the same."
Mark D.
Former Pastor


"Pastor to Pioneer has provided us with relationships that are helping us process our journey, hear God's voice, and see a path forward."

Delton and Charity
Former Pastor
"This year I left my role as pastor and my family went all in on multiplying prayer, disciples, and simple churches. It isn’t glamorous but it’s life giving. This transition has forced us to slow down and pour into the few - to love deeply and be more focused on obedience than results."
Jordan B.
Former Pastor

Form a Peer Cohort

As you receive coaching and begin our training, your coach will help you join or form a peer cohort. This group will help you put the principles and practices you’re learning into action. Your cohort will also become an ongoing support group for you as you go further down this path for years to come. Our team of volunteer coaches lead our cohorts.

Connect with a Network of Support

Although we’re pioneers, we’re not lone rangers. We need ongoing communal support from many streams or practice. As you receive coaching and training, you’ll begin to connect with a wider body of brothers and sisters. This network is like a tapestry of people from many different backgrounds but with a similar heart and vision. They collaborate across North America and beyond to fulfill the Great Commission.

Our training and support will help you cooperate with what God is doing in your community. As disciples and churches multiply around you, we want to help you see your city and region transform. An important fruit of your work will be neighbors loving and serving one another, on earth as in heaven. We’re here to walk with you and your network as community transformation takes root as well.

Dear Pastor,

You’re passionate about Jesus and want to see people grow. But the ministry model you’re part of feels more like managing an organization than making disciples.

If you’ve ever wondered what it would look like to be the church—right from your home—you’re not alone.

We help pastors like you transition out of the institution and into a new way of life and ministry. One that’s rooted in the way of Jesus, centered around relationships, and lived out in everyday spaces. A way that brings peace, clarity, and fruit—not pressure and burnout.

We’ll walk with you, connect you with a coach, and help you take your first steps making a disciple and leading simple, biblical expressions of church—starting in your home and extending into your neighborhood.

Let’s talk. There’s no cost for anything we offer. We’re just here to help you follow Jesus freely and fruitfully again.

In your corner,
The Pastor to Pioneer Team
