A multi-week program designed to move your God-given dream forward
What is it?
We work exclusively with Christ-centered leaders. There are many great causes out there; we exist to serve the greatest cause, the Gospel of Jesus. Though our leaders work in many different sectors of the world, the one thing they all have in common is that they are unapologetically followers of Jesus Christ and stand firmly on the authority of the Bible.
Who is this for?
The Mission Accelerator is for anyone with a Gospel-motivated idea or dream for their community. You need a Gospel-driven venture, willingness to refine your idea, and excitement to collaborate. Whether you have a new mission-driven business, non-profit, event, or an existing ministry seeking sustainability, we can help. Don't worry about labels—if you have an idea and meet our prerequisites, this is for you!
What will I get out of this?
By the end of the Mission Accelerator, you’ll have a completed Mission Blueprint, which is a business model to guide your mission delivery. You’ll build a network with 10-15 like-minded individuals, plus hear from some expert guest speakers. You may also qualify for ongoing mentorship to support your ministry venture.
What does it cost?
For just $230, you'll receive a program valued at $3,550. This includes practical and applicable curriculum, dynamic in-person instruction, inspiring guest speakers, and a celebratory event. It’s an incredible opportunity to gain valuable resources and support at an unbeatable price. Early bird pricing of $115 is available until November 15 for our January 2025 cohorts, so apply soon!

LINC stands for "Leaders in every Community". The “e” is silent. 🙂 We dream of a day when everyone in every corner of our cities can experience the Gospel in terms they can understand from someone that they know. We believe that empowered grassroots leaders are the key to that end.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors LINC is able to offer the highest quality resources at minimal (if any) cost. We do charge per seat for the Mission Accelerator because we’ve learned it creates greater investment for participants. The charge is a fraction of the total cost for the program
LINC is funded primarily through the generosity of individual donors and church partners. We are thankful for everyone who partners with us in this great work.
Most of our LINC leaders are connected to multiple networks. We believe in the power of Kingdom collaboration. In fact, we often help leaders to make new network connections and denominational affiliations as we assist in building their personal networks.
LINC was born out of the LCMS. That is the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. As such we are what is called an RSO of that synod and many of our team members are LCMS pastors. Though LINC has strong ties with the LCMS denomination we are an independent nonprofit. We develop leaders from multiple backgrounds and count many denominational leaders as our friends and partners.
