RESOURCES (teaching, downloads, culture, government, church planting, & more)

1. CONNECT

What is the Connect platform?

Connect is a membership and discipleship platform that empowers your church to integrate members into your culture, community, and covering. The heart of Connect is to disciple each person into daily personal encounters by teaching them how they best connect with God.

→ The purpose of Connect is to simplify the membership process, but its true goal is discipleship.

  • The platform involves three simple steps—

    Online Videos

    • You upload your own videos walking future members through your vision, culture, and church life.

    Online Assessments

    • We provide assessments for your team to learn more about your members’ personal history, and for members to learn their spiritual gifts and how they best connect with God — this is how we disciple people through Connect.

    One-on-One Appointment Scheduler

    • Through the platform, members schedule an appointment with connectors at your church who will pray with them, provide a personalized daily encounter plan, and discuss how to get connected in your church.

    * The Connect platform integrates with Planning Center to streamline your membership and serve team processes.

  • Our Connect team will provide training courses to teach you how to upload your own branding and videos into the platform, how to transition from your current/previous membership process, and will be available to answer your technical and practical questions along the way.

  • Connect with God is how we disciple people in daily encounters and spiritual growth.

    There is only one way to God, and it’s through Jesus — but in Jesus, there are many ways to connect with God. When you learn how you best connect with God, you begin to encounter Him in ways you didn’t know. The Connect with God assessment will ask you simple questions to help you determine some of your top Connect with God ways and equip you in your daily encounters.

    The Connect with God ways are packaged in a way that allows you to share videos, written content, and resources with your entire church as they are developed in connecting with God through each way.

2. RELATIONSHIP

Doing ministry alone was never in God’s heart. We want you to find authentic relationships with leaders like you.

How do we do this?

  • We help you connect and cultivate relationships with other PDN churches.

  • We connect you with Presence driven leaders to come minister at your church.

  • To have a healthy church and ministry team, we believe your family needs to be healthy. One of our values at PDN is health. We say, “leaders go first.” We remain healthy by prioritizing daily personal encounters with God, pursuing purity, putting family first, and protecting our sabbath so we can lead others in health. *(Matthew 6:33, Proverbs 3:5-8)*

    How do we do this?

    • We help develop healthy best practices so that you, your family, and your team can thrive.

    • We provide accountability, through relationship, to help you maintain a healthy lifestyle in full time ministry.

  • We want to provide you with the relationships you need to have a great and lasting impact.

    How do we do this?

    • We prioritize monthly phone calls, emails, and zoom calls with you as a senior leader.

    • We help facilitate ordination and apostolic covering for your church.

3. RESOURCES
