We've sat in your chair. We know what your day actually contains — and what your expertise is actually worth to a ministry that's trying to scale.
Ministries we partner with are full to the brim — the same way every growing organization is. The bottleneck isn't budget. It's strategy. Operations. Finance. Technology. The work that decides whether a mission scales or stalls is exactly the work marketplace careers are built around.
"The hardest hires for a ministry are the people you've already spent thirty years becoming."
Shon presented at a Barnabas dinner asking for help starting a localized advisory board. Nearly three years on, it has helped hire three new area directors and become a rock of wisdom and prayer.
Leading a ministry can feel isolating. Through the Executive Directors Forum and quarterly convenings, Wilita found peer counsel that sharpens strategy and surfaces blind spots — and in three years, Lobiko's reach grew from about 7,000 lives to more than 15,000.
Front-lines festival outreach got more than volunteers — CPAs, attorneys, and business leaders sat with the team, asked hard questions, and helped a new director lead with confidence.
“They didn't rush to give opinions or quick fixes. They listened carefully, asked thoughtful questions, and helped us identify the true issues before guiding us toward wise solutions. Their counsel has strengthened our ministry in ways that finances alone never could. For ministries like ours, the Barnabas Group is not simply an organization that offers support. They become partners in the Gospel.”
The best thing I did for that ministry wasn't a donation.
The story of September 1 at Topgolf Ontario, in words and pictures: a year as Ministry of the Year, a keynote on business as mission, the 2027 ballot, and a word to fathers. There is a seat waiting for you at the next one.
Fifteen minutes with someone who's been in your chair. No pitch, no commitment — just a conversation about your work and the ministries we'd match it to.
