What Great Commission leaders are saying about Converge
“Converge has been there for us anytime we call”
Dating back to shepherds on the Middle Eastern plains (Genesis 29:2–3), feeding, protecting and growing a flock works best when we coordinate and collaborate with others. I’m grateful for and better because of fellow Converge leaders and churches.
When the Lord led my family and me to serve in the Middle East over a decade ago, Converge — as our supportive extended family — assessed, trained and prayed for us. While on the field, Converge helped us carry out what God had called us to do. Now as a pastor in a multicultural city in the U.S., we gladly send our people who are called overseas through Converge.
Converge has been with me on every step of my church planting journey—from learning how to raise support, building a launch team and publicly launching the church. Our church would not have had the success it’s having today without the expertise from Converge.

The Unreached Among Us
Twin Cities Church Seeks to Reach 9,500 Thai They’re staggering numbers, when you think about them.

(With a “B.”) It’s hard to wrap the human brain around that number—let alone the faces, the souls, who have […]
Are you a pietist?
Several years ago, I began searching for an answer to this question: What makes Converge unique? In Converge, we celebrate our Swedish roots but are no longer a movement of Swedes. We celebrate our baptistic heritage, but few new church plants even include “Baptist” in the church name. So, what is it exactly that makes Converge unique? […]
Evangelism & Discipleship (Online) “Preview Event”
Many pastors struggle to reach the unchurched and mobilize their people for evangelism and service in their communities. Too often, churches turn inward, and pastors can feel defeated or stuck. However, Converge has partnered with the Wheaton College Billy Graham Center’s Church Evangelism Institute, which has a proven record of success in helping approximately 600 […]

Many other denominations and para-church organizations have modeled their process after ours. The purpose of assessment is to reduce risk and increase church planting success. We use […]
