Small Church Ministry is an interdenominational and international support organization for small churches. We are a for-profit ministry with a heart to reach small churches with resources that work with smaller budgets and smaller numbers.
We create both free and paid products to serve people in smaller churches (under 200 on a Sunday). Although we do support pastors, our primary goal is to equip the millions of volunteers, lay people, and ministry leaders in small churches worldwide.
We teach ministry skills and philosophies, not theology.
We are incredibly relational, deeply caring, and have a reputation for delivering high-quality and effective resources.
Laurie Graham started Small Church Ministry as an idea site for small churches. It has grown into its own ecosystem which includes: the Small Church Ministry website, The Small Church Ministry Podcast, Small Church Summits, and The Small Church Network – from ideas to leadership training, if you want to make an impact in your small church, hang out with us!
Laurie, along with her team, develops and runs Small Church Summits.
