    Brandon Matthews .:. Cultivate Ministries's Interests
General

.:What is Cultivate?:.

Cultivate is a personal resource and support system for the local church and its ministers. Our mission is to:

1. Encourage Pastors - Each month, 1,200 pastors leave the ministry due to stress, church related issues, moral failures, problems within their church, or spiritual burnout. 71% of all pastors say they are having financial problems. 80% of all seminary and Bible school graduates will leave the ministry within the first five years. 70% of all pastors say they do not have a close friend or confidant. At Cultivate we believe in breaking these statistics! Our heart is to form relationships with leaders in order to make deposits into their lives to bring encouragement and support.

2. Train Leaders - The average tenure of associate ministers and staff is less than two years. An estimated 25% of all pastors relocate every year. The responsibility lay leadership carry in the church is large. Through leadership training we equip leaders to fulfill what God has called them to do in ministry.

3. Lead Students - 80% of all pastors spouses feel their spouse is over worked. This statistic shows why 1,200 pastors a month are leaving the ministry due to burn out. Cultivate wants to help carry your load by taking part in your discipleship weekend, conference, retreat, service, etc., in hopes to help build your congregation as well as provide rest and ministry to the minister.

4. Build Bridges - With 25% of our pastors relocating each year and 1,200 per month leaving the ministry, there are large gaps in ministry leadership. Our mission is to provide you with an interim based ministry that builds bridges over the gap of leadership. Our team will provide you with a minister to serve over the course of an allotted time while you fill the vacant leadership position.

HeroesMy heroes are those who live life with integrity, passion, and conviction. The people who serve Jesus Christ even when it's not easy or convenient. The people who chase their God given dreams, achieve them, and then return credit and praise back to God. At the top of all of this, Jesus Christ is my hero!

Oh my!  What kind of ear surgery?  Brooklyn named our boy Charlie, too!  How neat =)  Food allergies?  Like real bad?  I keep hearing they are good with kidos, and of course that's what we need.  We are getting two of them, God bless my soul, and I'm nervous about it lol  I may change my mind when we actually see them Friday.  I cannot wait.  Are they considered indoor dogs, or both? If you don't mind, when Donna talks to you let me know what you think.  =)
