We equip you

to teach the Bible

& HELP LOCAL CHURCHES DO THE SAME

Teach Equip exists to equip, encourage, and train gifted-to-teach Christians to become better teachers of God’s Word.

We do this by shepherding the heart, teaching faithful hermeneutics, and giving very practical “how to’s” in communicating.

License Teach Equip in your own church. Lead a group through our content while we coach you every step of the way.

  • WHY LOCAL TEACHING MATTERS

    ● Local church teaching is personal, contextual, and transformative.

    ● There’s a growing need for teachers who can rightly handle God’s Word.

    ● Most churches don’t have a clear pathway for identifying and developing these teachers.

  • HOW TEACH EQUIP HELPS

    ● A proven, 7-month program to train and develop Bible teachers in your own church.

    ● Step-by-step resources and hands-on support to guide church leaders through the process.

    ● Safe spaces for students to practice teaching and receive feedback in community.

  • HOW IS TEACH EQUIP DIFFERENT

    ● Emphasis on actual teaching practice and personalized coaching and feedback

    ● Trains lay Bible teachers (aka church members gifted to teach who don’t have a seminary degree)

    ● Shorter and less expensive than seminary while not cutting corners on what matters

    ● Developing teachers grow in community with one another

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

  • As a complementarian pastor, I could not recommend a better ministry to equip the women in your congregation for ministry.

    —Dr. Justin Jackson, Director of Theological Development at Stonegate Church

  • Teach Equip has impacted our church in some extraordinary ways! This course has given us stronger Bible study leaders, women’s event speakers, care ministry leaders, and small group facilitators.

    —Jennifer Curran, Women’s Ministry Director at Stonegate Church

  • There’s simply nothing out there as clear, thorough, hands-on and biblical as this program for equipping women Bible teachers.

    —Jimmy Needham, Worship and Teaching Pastor at Stonegate Church

  • I have been teaching the Bible for a while, but Teach Equip gave me the clarity I lacked on how to develop and deliver a message that is true to the text and crafted for my audience.

    —Shannon Popkin, author of Shaped by God's Promises and host of the “Live Like It's True” Podcast

  • Pastor, the women of your church are learning theology. Rather than outsourcing the theological development of women to those outside your church, why not develop those voices in your church?

    —Rodney Hobbs, Lead Pastor of Stonegate Church

    —Katie Zintek, Women’s Ministry Leader at Westwood Church
