Step Into a Movement. Build What’s Burning in Your Heart.

The 2025–2026 Dwellings Cohort is a 6-month journey—from November 2025 to April 2026—for those who to join a relational network of leaders cultivating communities around the presence of Jesus, modeled after the values of the early church. This is our premiere offering as a ministry, for those serious about pursuing a new way ahead.

Whether you’re leading in a traditional church, a house church, or you’re wanting to start a community in your living room or dorm—if you're longing for inspiration around the new things God is doing in the Church, and a group of traveling companions to grow alongside . . . this is your invitation to apply.

Who This Is For:

  • House church leaders

  • Leaders seeking to make shifts in their traditional church

  • College students building community in a dorm or apartment

    You don’t have to be in vocational ministry to be part of this - God is using ordinary people to shape this movement.

This Isn’t Just Training. It’s a Global Movement.

In a culture where many feel isolated, where information doesn’t always lead to transformation, and where church can feel like a spectator event—we believe there’s a better way. At the heart of the Dwellings Cohort are three simple but radical shifts. We are moving from isolation to family, from information to transformation, and from spectating to participating.

Centered on the presence of Jesus, these shifts shape everything we do—and everything you’ll experience.

When You Join the Dwellings Cohort, You’ll Receive:

  • Traveling companions – a transatlantic relational network of like-minded pioneers and future friends. A network of relationships of trust is what is causing this movement of God to multiply.

  • Stimulating ideas – from house church leaders, traditional church pastors making decentralizing shifts, and marketplace believers starting something new. As we build unique and contextualized ways forward in our own communities, we our imaginations will be stirred around about the future church.

  • Practical tools – you’ll complete our Dwellings Training Circle online course, (30 hours of content, to complete over the course of the cohort), included in the price of the cohort. You will learn a dozen simple frameworks that will give you everything you need to start your own community or house church and equip others around you to do the same. In our live gatherings, we will have a chance to practice these things together.

THREE LIVE GATHERINGS:

We have three live gatherings over the year and we ask that cohort participants commit to at least two of the three. If you can come to all three, they will all be significant for our journey together.

  1. Sedalia, Colorado, USA | Lost Valley Ranch | November 5-7, 2025

    The Presence of God in My Life We will start off our journey in the middle of the Rocky Mountains, meeting like-minded friends, enjoying great meals, riding horses, and remembering how loved we are by God. This first gathering will help us personally center our lives back on the presence of Jesus. We will introduce the three shifts that we feel God calling us into: isolation to family, information to transformation, and spectators to participants. This gathering will be a pivotal one, as we forge relationships that will be the foundation of the cohort.

  2. London + Oxford, UK | various churches in London and Oxford, and Stampwell Farm | January 26-29, 2026

    The Presence of God in the World Small but potent communities have been at the center of new movements in the church and the spark for revivals for centuries. On this trip we will spend time tracing stories of small communities through history, and also learn about some current movements in England that started with a few people seeking for more of Jesus together. We will learn from the crew that pioneered evangelistic communities through Alpha, and our imaginations will be stirred by some non-traditional strategies the traditional church in England is now using to reach their contexts. Next, we will take a train to Beaconsfield, England, to visit Latimer Minster at Stampwell farm. Latimer Minster itself is an independent church with a strong emphasis on community, innovation, and faith in action. From this farm small and innovative expressions of church have been inspired across the world.

    Last, we will end this gathering in Oxford, hearing from some inspiring modern day voices in the Church while tracing the footsteps of CS Lewis, John Wesley, and George Whitfield, in the places they first built communities that would change the course of history.

  3. Little Rock, Arkansas, USA | Innovation Hub | April 10-11, 2026

    The Presence of God in our Communities We will go a step deeper in mapping out our unique plans to center the presence of God in our communities. During this gathering, we will collaborate around innovating for the sake of the Kingdom in ways that are contextual to the communities where we live. We will take time to enjoy Main Street in the Argenta Arts District. If you choose to stay over until Sunday, we will provide you with a host home and you are invited to participate with us in one of our local house churches.

TWO ONLINE GATHERINGS:

Thursday, December 11 // 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM CST / 5:30 - 7:00 PM GMT

Thursday, February 12 // 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM CST / 5:30 - 7:00 PM GMT

Why It’s Worth the Investment:

The Dwellings Cohort is not just a course—it’s a catalytic experience designed to activate your calling, multiply your impact, and root your leadership in the presence of God. Though it requires financial sacrifice on your end, know that we are able to offer these experiences at less than cost value because donors have subsidized this cohort. The investment from our end has proven to be more than worth it, because we have seen that it is through a network of relationships that the Kingdom multiplies the fastest. Getting outside of our local spheres to catch glimpses of the grand vision God has for our day has had effects that are hard to even quantify.

While you could spend as much money on a vacation or another type of personal development, the Dwellings Cohort offers a lifechanging, relational, and mission-driven experience for a fraction of the cost—with real-life practice and friendships that can last far beyond this year.

You’re not just learning theology or strategy—you’re joining a relational network that is reimagining church and discipleship for a new generation.

If you’re ready to take the next bold step into what God is stirring in your heart, apply now.
