A Movement Has Started — And It’s Bigger Than a Summit
Something powerful happened during the Kingdom Impact Summit.
Not just exciting.
Not just inspiring.
Not just encouraging.
A movement was born.
If you were there, you felt it.
If you watched even one session, you sensed it.
If you read the comments, heard the testimonies, or sat through a
keynote that stirred your spirit… you know exactly what I mean:
This was not an event.
This was an activation.
A shift.
A spark.
A God-breathed moment that signaled a new era for Kingdom entrepreneurship and global transformation.
In this long-form recap, we’re going to walk through:
What made this Summit different
Why the global Church is hungry for a new model of mission
The impact that is already unfolding
The path forward—one that leads to 100+ funded entrepreneurs, jobs created, disciples made, and communities transformed
And most importantly: how YOU can be part of this movement
Let’s dive in.
Why This Wasn’t Just a Summit — It Was a Movement
For years, believers everywhere have been asking deeper questions:
“What does long-term transformation really look like?”
“Is there a better model for missions?”
“How can I use my gifts in business to advance the Gospel?”
“Why does poverty keep repeating even after aid is given?”
During the Summit, those questions turned into a collective BOOM:
The global Church is ready.
Ready for sustainability.
Ready for dignity-focused missions.
Ready for disciple-making entrepreneurs.
Ready for Kingdom business done with excellence and purpose.
Across the live chats, comments, emails, and messages, one phrase kept repeating:
👉 “This feels like a movement.”
Not hype.
Not buzz.
But a recognition that God is stirring hearts in a fresh way.
This is the shift:
❌ Not handouts.
❌ Not dependency.
❌ Not short-term mission trips with no long-term impact.
But instead—
✔️ Local businesses
✔️ Local leaders
✔️ Local jobs
✔️ Local discipleship
✔️ Local transformation
This is what IBAM was built for: Business as mission that lasts.
And this Summit made it crystal clear: believers everywhere are hungry for it.
A Global Community Showed Up — And YOU Made It Powerful
Yes, thousands attended.
Yes, dozens of speakers shared life-changing wisdom.
Yes, chat rooms were full of encouragement and breakthrough stories.
But the real miracle?
The unity of believers worldwide saying, “YES. I want to be part of this.”
You could feel it:
When people prayed for the entrepreneurs we’re funding
When parents, pastors, CEOs, and students took pages of notes
When professionals said, “I want my career to matter for the Kingdom”
When comments flooded in saying, “This is what I’ve been waiting for”
Your participation didn’t just “support” the Summit.
Your presence shaped a movement.
Every time you showed up, took notes, asked questions, or shared a session…
…YOU helped push forward real-world transformation in communities that need it most.
This is why IBAM exists.
This is why God breathed on this Summit.
This is why the impact is already accelerating.
Honoring Our 40+ Speakers — Voices Who Helped Ignite the Shift
Over 40 world-changing leaders stepped forward to pour into this mission.
Their backgrounds were diverse:
Marketplace ministers
Nonprofit founders
Global mission leaders
Pastors
Business owners
Investors
Coaches
Missional entrepreneurs
But their message was unified:
The Gospel and business were never meant to be separate.
Session after session echoed the same Kingdom truth:
Entrepreneurship isn’t just economic activity.
It’s not just job creation.
It’s not just financial empowerment.
It’s discipleship.
It’s leadership development.
It’s community transformation.
It’s Kingdom multiplication.
Our speakers didn’t hold back.
They spoke from revelation, experience, and conviction.
And it awakened something deep in all of us.
The Impact: Why We’re Closer Than Ever to Funding 100 Entrepreneurs
Here’s where it gets exciting:
Because of YOUR engagement…
because of YOUR generosity…
because of YOUR heart for mission…
IBAM is closer than ever to fully funding 100 Christian entrepreneurs in developing nations.
This isn’t symbolic.
This isn’t theoretical.
This isn’t “one day.”
It’s happening now.
When even one entrepreneur is trained and funded:
A business is launched
A family is fed
Jobs appear in places with no opportunities
Hope grows in communities with none
Discipleship begins multiplying
Kingdom influence spreads organically
Entrepreneurs become spiritual leaders.
Business becomes mission.
Communities begin to thrive.
This is the Gospel in action.
This is sustainability.
This is dignity.
This is the future of global mission.
What God Made Clear: The Church Is Ready for a New Model of Mission
We’ve known for years that traditional mission models—although well-intentioned—often don’t create lasting change.
The Summit confirmed what God has been whispering:
A new kind of missionary is rising.
Not someone who only travels…
but someone who builds.
Someone who multiplies.
Someone who hires.
Someone who disciples.
Someone who creates generational change through enterprise.
The entrepreneurs we fund become:
Local leaders
Local job creators
Local stability
Local disciple-makers
Local hope multipliers
No dependency.
No handouts.
No short-term disruption.
Just sustainable, God-honoring transformation.
And the Church…
the global Church…
is ready.
