Ministry Ventures 2015 Fall Update
1. MV Brief / Fall, 2015
Dear MV Partner,
As we enter the last quarter of 2015, we wanted to take a quick moment to reflect and share
the great things you have been accomplishing through your partnership with Ministry
Ventures. It’s been a year of growth on an unprecedented scale and it wouldn’t have been
possible without you!
Our Ministry Venture’s team provides a variety of services: Coaching, Training, Consulting,
Networking and Mentoring to name a few. But ultimately the heart behind what we do is
LOVE:
We Love Leaders—specifically Ministry Leaders
We love them by listening to their fears and aspirations. We love them through the hard
times and celebrate with them in the good times. We love them tenderly with comfort and
encouragement. We love them firmly with deadlines and accountability.
Since we expect progress, Ministry Leaders know we love them. Currently we are loving
over 170 ministry leaders—who so far this year have signed up either for an Executive
Group or one of our other engaging offerings. Because of your generosity and love—we
have the resources and relationships to love like Jesus. We want to share a few specific ways
with you in the following pages.
Grateful to God for You,
- Boyd

OUR NEW CERTIFIED
COACHING PROGRAM
“Our new Certified Coaches program will help
us achieve scale by adding more feet on the street.
We’re recruiting men and women who have
established coaching or consulting ministries. Because
they have existing relationships with ministry leaders, they are
able to hit the ground running. We also see the potential for
synergy of content, as many of them have expertise in areas
not currently emphasized in our online course. The diversity of
backgrounds and experience they bring to Ministry Ventures
makes everyone better – Iron sharpening iron!”

“I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, because I hear about your
love for all his holy people and your faith in the Lord Jesus. I pray that your partnership
with us in the faith may be effective in deepening your understanding of every good thing
we share for the sake of Christ. Your love has given me great joy and encouragement,
because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the Lord’s people” (Philemon 1:4-6).
