The need for healthy leadership teams has never been higher. In our first seven years of Leading Second, we’ve reached over 40,000 second chair leaders. With your partnership, we can make an even greater Kingdom impact.
Join us in equipping second chair leaders in 2025
We need healthy, thriving church teams.
You can’t have a healthy church without a healthy second chair team.
- 56% of lead pastors reported that the driving factor for wanting to leave the ministry is the immense stress of the role.
- 43% stated the desire to leave due to loneliness.
- However, 59% of lead pastors who haven’t considered quitting say it’s due to being supported well by their community.
When church teams and leaders are healthy, churches get better.
Together, we can make an impact.
We’d like to invite you and your church to partner with us, to help take our mission forward.
With your partnership, you can:
- Enable us to give away resources for free to church plants & churches in need
- Partner with us to write and publish our first ministry book to equip second chair leaders
- Make coaching accessible to churches through reduced cost work
- Send us to new cities for On The Road events that allow us to have more face time with second chair leaders through free events
JOIN OUR PARTNERSHIP TEAM
Leading Second’s Partner team is made up of individuals and churches who have committed to come alongside us in prayer and financial investment in order to fuel ministry strength and expansion.
In other words, a team of the most Kingdom-minded givers on the planet.
These gifts will specifically go toward purchasing gear, developing content and producing resources for leaders everywhere.
Regular monthly gifts are vital, as they allow us to hire staff and develop long-term strategies for growth. These gifts will specifically go toward team development, providing resources to churches in need, and ministry expansion.
Goals:
- Every $250 gives a church Leading Second Pro for free
- 5 churches at $500 per month to help us launch our organization’s first book
- Every $500 per month gives us the ability to host an On the Road event
Thank you for your support!
We couldn’t do this without you! We’re crazy enough to believe the local church can be stronger and healthier because of the work we’ll do together.
EXPANDING OUR TEAM
Leading Second is seven years old in February 2025, and to this day is supported by a mostly volunteer team of 30+ leaders from across North America. Our heart is for our team to remain heavily volunteer, but led and managed with excellence and strength. Your financial giving will allow us to continue to build the team we have in our hearts, fueling our vision in greater measure.
If you have it in your heart to involve members of your team on the Leading Second team, please let us know. Consider us an extension of your church’s heart to resource the greater body of Christ.
We have a strong onboarding process that includes lead pastor approval for any ministry involvement. Our aim is that your team’s involvement with Leading Second only strengthens their heart for your local church vision (and never competes).
