As Jesus said, "lift your eyes," the opportunities to bring Kingdom impact through your business are all around you.

8 Weeks + Advisory Panel

After the Foundations group, many entrepreneurs find themselves asking: "what now?" The Imagination Lab is designed to help answer that question in real-life, practical steps. For eight dedicated weeks, participants meet with Co-Founders David Mills and Amy Alexander to work through a Kingdom Canvas. Following the cohort is an advisory panel session with seasoned pros to gain insightful feedback.

8 Sessions + Homework

Each session is virtual to allow peers from all over the country. We meet for 90 minutes once a week. In-between sessions there will be homework to complete so that it's ready for the following week's lab.

Kingdom Canvas

Think "Lean Canvas" but built for redemptive business. Our Kingdom Canvas has been carefully developed and tested over years of coaching entrepreneurs of all sizes. At the end of the cohort you'll have a large deck of useful materials and a one-page canvas that clearly states your strategy.

Hear from entrepreneurs

Amazing things happen when a group of entrepreneurs seek Jesus in unity.

This was exactly what I needed to stave off the loneliness that comes with entrepreneurship, the confusion of the intersection of faith and profit, and the honor in following God in this way.

Marissa E., Entrepreneur

Through the Founder’s Table, I learned to see my industry in light of God’s calling and how his purposes can be reflected in my business. As a result, I have recentered my business model around Kingdom values with a new plan to create customer experiences that lead people toward Christ.

Christina H., Entrepreneur

My business is teaching me how to be a Christian.

Erika B., Entrepreneur

I’ve been through a lot of these kinds of cohorts, and I’ve never been in one that made Kingdom things so practical and transformative. The process has allowed me to clarify my next steps in following Christ.

Matthew S., Entrepreneur + Pastor
