“Fellowship Associates has been one of the most formative experiences of my life because it provides such a unique opportunity for learning, leadership development, and personal growth. Not only do you get incredible training and teaching, you get incredible character development and insights into who you are as a man and how you’re wired to lead, serve, and impact others for Christ. I’m a far better leader, church planter, husband, and dad because of my time and relationships in FA.”
— Claude Atcho ‘14, Redeemer Church (Boston, MA)
“Fellowship Associates has opened doors in my leadership house that I didn’t even know were there. I believe I’m a better leader, husband, and father because of this experience.”
— Matt Lawson ‘15, Story City Church (Los Angeles, CA)
“I have been through 3 years of seminary training, 2 years of additional pastoral training, and Ph.D. work, but none of that compared to the type of mentoring and equipping that I received through Fellowship Associates. Nothing I have done did more to help me as a husband, father, and pastor than the FA Residency.”
— Toby Kurth ’14, Christ Church (San Francisco, CA)
“My time in the FA residency was invaluable, and I believe it or something like it should be an integral part of every church planters journey”
