Overwhelmed?

As a ministry committed to reaching people with the Gospel, you understand how critical it is to find, equip, and launch effective disciple-making leaders who can drive that mission forward. In order to do so successfully, you need to build a discipleship training program that’s not only in line with your values but also attractive to prospective future leaders.

That’s a big lift. Developing an academic-grade training program involves significant bandwidth and budget and comes with a steep learning curve. Even the most resourced ministries can find the undertaking insurmountable.

Let us build the program you want without reinventing the wheel.

The Launch Initiative (TLI), our gap year program here at Arrowhead, has become a dynamic catalyst of our mission to Impact Lives & Make Disciples. Eleven:6 has made it possible for us to take our unique ministry context that is perfect for spiritual formation, personal & professional development to the next level. Our partnership with Eleven:6 and the creation of TLI has expanded our camp programming, increased revenue, and exponentially grown our impact in the lives of young adults.

For the past decade we’ve partnered with Eleven:6 to create an internship program that has been a safe place for aspiring ministry leaders to learn, fail, grow, and pursue advanced degrees. Our graduates are all over the world serving as missionaries, ministry leaders, pastors, and counselors. Program grads are now staff members and ministry leaders at both of our campuses. I can’t say enough about the partnership.

Chazak Rescue trains and deploys international first responders. Eleven:6 made it possible for our students to be earning an undergraduate degree — taking integrated courses — whether they are training in the wilderness in western US, in a classroom on the eastern US, learning to navigate in New York City, traveling to third party location for rescue certifications, or deployed internationally. The world has become our classroom thanks to the powerful versatility provided by the team and tools from Eleven:6 and Anchor Christian University.

I have loved every bit of this program — it feels right. I’ve learned things that I never thought that I would be able to learn and I don’t have to miss out on actively serving in Haiti. It’s the best of both worlds. The more that I learn and talk to other people in ministry I’m realizing how forward-thinking my education is. I’m learning things in the “classroom” that I can immediately integrate into my personal ministry and day-to-day life. I really cannot think of a better way to pursue ministry than to learn in the field and experience what it’s like to live life on mission.

It is evident that God led my ministry, Touch The World, to partner with Eleven:6. Touch the World has always worked with teens, but we also see the incredible need to work with today’s young adults through next-level opportunities, such as an accredited gap year program. Eleven:6 allows us to remain true to our purpose, to equip young people to live out the mission of God, while providing college credit when needed or desired. I’m not sure that launching our gap year program would even be possible without the partnership with Eleven:6.

Eleven:6 delivers a package that carefully addresses the need for quality education that is affordable while doing ministry. Partnership and presence matters. When Breathe Partners chose to partner with Eleven:6, we hit a grand slam. Their team is constantly improving their services and they are always available with timely solutions. Our students are excelling in ministry as they excel in their coursework. They are exceptional students and leaders on the frontlines of ministry.

Dan O’DeensBreathe Partners / Breathe School of Ministry

Partnering with Eleven:6 was the best decision we made when developing our Residency program. They’re easy to work with, understand and support our mission, and designed a program where the Residents earn an accredited master’s degree that fits into the framework of our ministry. It’s helped us recruit high-caliber team members that produce real value while they learn. And we launched in only a few months!

Eric SmithHidden Acres Camp

I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you for the great experience with Anchor/CSU over these last few years. The design for experiencing and engaging learning through the course is very well thought through and absolutely exceeded my other education experiences. I greatly appreciated the teacher’s focus on usable learning. I also appreciated the ease of flowing from course to course from the signing up process, communication. The program was well-rounded in preparation for current and future leadership roles.

John EhnisPastor / MA Program Student

Having the ability in our local church to deploy our interns at targeted missional opportunities in our city through a program we had the chance to help develop alongside of Eleven:6 has been enormously valuable. Their approach and experience to design in a way that leverages our context has increased our targeted output and resulted in immediate traction and relationships that are moving toward the expansion of our primary mission – to make disciples.

You might still be wondering…

How much does it cost to work with you?

For most ministry partners, there is currently NO COST to partner with Eleven:6. All of the front-end consultation, program development, staff development, etc. is an investment we make in your mission and your program’s success.

Our revenue comes via student tuition, which comes into play after your program launches and is generally not sourced from your budget. In fact, a portion of the student tuition can also flow into your budget, depending on your goals and needs.

How long does it take to launch a program?

That depends on what we’re starting with and how big your goals are. An enhancement of your existing year-long institute usually takes only a couple of months. A new, highly customized 4-year undergraduate program with an accelerated master’s degree endeavor, for example, may be a 2-year process (with launch around 12 months and ongoing development work through the first program year).

Relative to a DIY approach, our process helps you achieve your goals on an incredibly accelerated timeline—particularly if you want to plug into accredited degree outcomes.

Can you help us upgrade a program we already have?

Yes! We do this often.

One of our core values is to develop programs that carry the DNA and ethos of the frontline ministry partner. When we get to enhance a program that is already “you,” we have the opportunity to lean into that process at another level.

Will our program be accredited?

Direct accreditation is expensive, difficult to achieve and often strains missional outcomes.

Strategically staging students for accredited degree outcomes requires specialized knowledge and relationships, but it is inexpensive, achievable and adds value without straining missional outcomes.

We specialize on the second option. With over two decades of experience, we have refined the process and built relationships with colleges & universities to leverage the best of accredited outcome options while amplifying the missional outcomes for our ministry partners.

What do your services include?

Eleven:6 walks with you through the entire life cycle of program vision, design, development, launch, and implementation—for as long as you have the program. Our toolbox replicates a Christian university and can be tuned to your unique disciple-making mission and vision.

Whether you need a single course or a full program, we provide integrated:

● academic design,
● content resourcing,
● university-qualified faculty,
● an enterprise-level learning management system,
● student record management,
● and student lifecycle management help.

Once we know the parameters of your program needs/outcomes, we can send you a focused set of options and timelines.

What’s your experience and track record?

For over two decades, our team has been developing and delivering integrated college and graduate ministry education programs for churches, mission agencies, camps, and GAP programs across the US and abroad (at least 12 countries across 4 continents). In 2017, Eleven:6 launched Anchor Christian University, now an independent nonprofit institution with hundreds of students across the US, Latin America, and Asia.

All of our faculty members are seasoned ministry professionals. Most of them have at least a decade of ministry leadership experience, and also carry the highest level of academic credentials. Our team of disciple-makers understands your frontline challenges and opportunities and will pour themselves into a program that is on mission and geared for high impact.
