I’ve decided to bring churches into the system slowly, one at a time. I want to be able to work directly with each of the first 100 or so churches to make sure the app is meeting their needs in a way that scales and doesn’t compromise the broadness of the ways that different churches will use TrainedUp.

I’m starting with pastor-friends who have expressed a need to do online training as a supplement to, and at times a replacement of, their in-person training. I’ll bring them on, help them get their first few training courses produced and published, and learn from how they use the app.

The initial three churches will range from a church plant with a couple hundred people, an established neighborhood church, and a large multisite church.
