Come Away with Fresh Ways to Equip Your Global Teams
Are we making disciples, or just sending content?
-
Equip workers wherever they serve
Explore how mission organizations prepare and support workers across countries, languages, and ministry contexts.
-
Reach people with patchy connections
Hear what is working when internet is unreliable and schedules are unpredictable, including low-connectivity settings.
-
Keep discipleship relational
See how coaching, community, and spiritual formation can be strengthened by digital tools without being replaced by them.
-
Think clearly about AI
Look at where AI helps and where it does not, with mission leaders who are doing this work now.
Your People Are Serving Across Borders. Equipping Them Should Not Stop When They Leave.
You have poured your best equipping into field guides, videos, and online programs. But on the ground, much of it sits unopened. A worker in a rural village has patchy data and fifteen spare minutes. A volunteer is juggling a job and a family. A promising disciple-maker starts strong, then quietly drops off by week three.
The equipping is rich. It just is not reaching people's lives. So every mission leader eventually asks: are we making disciples, or just sending content?
- Preparation that does not reach the field.
- Workers need equipping even when connections are unreliable and schedules are unpredictable.
- One mission, many contexts.
- Shared preparation has to adapt to different languages, cultures, and ministry contexts across regions.
- Discipleship that stays relational.
- Digital resources should strengthen mentoring, community, and spiritual formation, not stand in for them.
This summit is a collaborative space for equipping leaders to explore that question together: sharing what is working in the field, examining where technology helps and where it does not, and thinking through how organizations can use digital tools to give their workers more capacity for the relational work that cannot be automated.
What We Will Cover Together

-
8:00–8:20 a.m. PST 20 min
The Problem We Are Solving
What really happens between "program published" and "life transformed"? We will examine why so much of the best equipping never makes it into people's daily lives, and what changes that.
-
8:20–8:40 a.m. PST 20 min
Multiplying Your Impact
Discipleship was never meant to stop with the person in front of you. How do you build equipping that reproduces itself, so the people you disciple go on to disciple others?
-
8:40–9:10 a.m. PST 30 min
Lessons from the Field
Mission leaders share real stories: connecting workers across countries, sustaining equipping after initial preparation ends, and showing boards and supporters real fruit, not just completion numbers.
-
9:10–9:20 a.m. PST 10 min
From Manual to Movement with AI
AI in action: see how AI can turn the field guides and resources you already have into engaging, interactive programs, without losing the human heart of discipleship.
-
9:20–9:30 a.m. PST 10 min
Open Conversation: Making It Work in Your Context
How do you sustain equipping across time zones? Where does technology help, and where does it not? Bring your questions and work through them with other leaders facing the same challenges.
