What is Dwelling 1:14?

Dwelling 1:14 comes alongside pastors and leaders to help them intentionally disciple their people to join Jesus on His mission in the places they already live, work and go to school. Every Sunday, your congregation gathers around Jesus in worship, and is then sent out to join Jesus as He pursues His Father's mission in the community. Joining Jesus on His mission is what is meant by missional living.

The name Dwelling 1:14 references John 1:14 and the incarnational, missional nature both of Jesus and of those who would follow Him into the world. Dwelling 1:14 helps individuals, families and congregations reorder their lives to join Jesus, have more fun, and spend more time enjoying people through missional living. Dwelling 1:14 is not about changing Sunday mornings but about what happens the rest of the week “out there” in the world, where your congregation lives.  We have found that when people support each other in seeking the Kingdom and joining Jesus in everyday life, really cool things begin to happen regularly!

Dwelling 1:14 is a 501(c)3 ministry led by Rev. Greg Finke, an ordained pastor with more than 20 years of experience growing and leading congregations. For the past 20 years, he has been discovering how to live missionally, how to disciple missional leaders and how to establish and multiply missional communities. Let him show you how.
