Facilitate SoKM at your local church with your local leaders

Our team trains and equips your church to run the school under our educational model and curriculum. We work alongside your team to assist in everything from leader training to student recruitment to preparing your weekly class structure.

CURRENT STUDENTS + LEADERS

Here, near, and far away are embarking on their School of Kingdom Ministry experience.

 

ALUMNI STUDENTS

Our growing network of alumni brings the Kingdom impact to their local communities more powerfully than ever before.

 

HOST SITES

From 8 countries all around the globe, churches are partnering together to bring SoKM to their members.

 

Initial Steps

Church-to-church partnership is a high value for us.

Each church that joins our network enters into a collaborative, working relationship with our team. The first step is completing the Network Application. This short application allows our team to review your church’s desires and needs, and discuss a future partnership with you.

Access to Resources + Training

SoKM’s primary goal is to produce the highest quality experience for every student in every location.

Once you’ve joined our network, we provide your leadership with a comprehensive Online Training System. This allows your leaders to train at a pace that works for them. Our support team will assist with any questions along the way. Once your team is fully trained, you’ll start preparations for your first class!

 

Launching Your Class

As you approach your class launch, our team will connect with your leaders frequently, offering guidance and additional resources through the start-up process.

We will help recruit students and troubleshoot logistics. After the first class, our team will stay in touch, offering assistance throughout the year regarding anything you might need.

FAQ's

I don’t believe the church we attend would be willing to host. Is it possible to host without being sponsored by our church?

Our aim is to make the School of Kingdom Ministry as accessible as possible to as many people as possible. However, our policy is to only work in partnership with a church. Our ultimate mission is to support and grow your local church to be a transformative presence in your area. With that in mind, we choose not to partner with individuals outside of a local church so as not to cause division. We want the best learning environments for our students, and we’ve found the best way to achieve this is through the local church.

Do the sessions start at specific times or can a church hop in when they want?

We start our classes every fall, and host churches use the latest version of the videos we produce when they start. You are free to launch your class whenever works best for your community.

How much time does the leader training take?

The leader training consists of 2-3 hours of online text and video content. In addition, leaders must spend several hours practicing the core activations and conducting power evangelism outings. It is very important for leaders to have personal experience with activations and power evangelism before they lead students in class. We recommend blocking out 2-3 hours a week for 4-6 weeks to conduct your training activities.

What is the difference between SoKM, Bethel, and Global training schools?

Our understanding is that while Bethel and Global can be hosted at your church, this was not their original design. Because of this, these schools rely heavily on teaching with less emphasis on Holy Spirit activation exercises or the connection to the local church.

SoKM was designed to easily plug into your local church’s set-up while helping to advance your local ministries. Our leader training allows you to engage with the Holy Spirit activation exercises with a live, trained person facilitating.

What is the class size requirement? We are a small church, but want to host SoKM.

We recommend 5+ students in order to create the community learning that occurs in this course. We ask each site to recruit 1 leader for every 5 students they expect to have in class.

How much is the network fee? What does it cover?

Our network fee is based on the size of the church. Price per congregation numbers: 1-99 = $375, 100-499 = $625, etc.

This is a one-time fee that covers the cost of the training and support of the location leaders.

As a host, what are my role and responsibilities?

Our goal is to empower you with the training and materials you need, and then allow you run the class yourself.

Each week, class will start with an hour long teaching video that we provide. The activation and practice portion of class is led live by your leadership team. All of the leadership, pastoring, and administration of the class are up to you and your team.

Ready to Grow?

Our goal is to activate every believer to live a naturally supernatural lifestyle so that everywhere they go they can partner with where God is already working.

"SoKM has challenged me to become more aware of the paradigm that I use to view God"

“SoKM has challenged me to become more aware of the paradigm that I use to view God, myself, and the world. I have been encouraged to move from being complacent about praying for people to stepping out regularly with expectation that I would receive specific words from God for the situation.”

— Becky Olmstead, Vineyard USA Leader

“It has been my privilege to watch SoKM help and serve so many people.”

“It has been my privilege to watch School of Kingdom Ministry help and serve so many people in and out of the Vineyard movement….We all want material that will help people in their pilgrimage, and this is a great contribution to that.”

— Phil Strout, former National Director Vineyard USA

“A great discipleship opportunity for local churches.”

“SoKM presents a great discipleship opportunity for local churches to equip and empower their people in the message, ministry, and mission of Jesus in the power of the Holy Spirit. It is with genuine excitement that Vineyard Churches Australia is now collaborating with the school!“

— Kirk & Nicole Delaney, National Directors, Vineyard Churches Australia
