GOD’S FIRST COMMAND TO MANKIND WAS CENTERED AROUND MULTIPLICATION.
“THEN GOD BLESSED THEM AND SAID, ‘BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY. FILL THE EARTH AND GOVERN IT.’”
2024 was a phenomenal year of growth for our church. In January, we made a commitment to believe for immeasurably more (Ephesians 3:20-21) and at the same time received a powerful prophetic word that our church was entering into the most important ve years in our history — that we would begin to experience unprecedented multiplication. Needless to say, we have seen the beginnings of this multiplication. This year, we launched two new locationsJohannesburg, South Africa and Nashville, Tennessee. Our average global weekend attendance is up approximately 30% and nearly every area of our ministry is increasing. The best number to celebrate — over 15,000 individuals have given their lives to Jesus in 2024. God is truly on the move!
We are preparing now for what God has in store for us in 2025 and we can hardly wait to see what God will do. We literally have so many opportunities before us — locations that need to be launched, buildings that need to be built, open doors that we need to walk through, and people that need to be reached! In the U.S. In South America. In Africa. In Europe… Let’s go! Multiplication is happening!
Let’s make 2025 special. Let’s do our part to move the Vision forward. Let’s be fruitful and multiply!
VISION 2025
BUILDING OUR CHURCH
NEW NEXT GENERATION BUILDING - $15,000,000
This expansion at the Houston Levee location is focused on new and upgraded spaces for Axis and Kids Life as well as better meeting and o ce spaces for sta and volunteers. In addition, this project will include meeting spaces for Life Groups and recording studios for the classes we provide across all our locations.
AXIS CONFERENCE - $300,000
Over the last 16 years, our Axis Student Conference has impacted thousands of teenagers. After reaching full capacity three years in a row, we are now strategically dreaming about how to continue to grow and expand our investment in the next generation and the impact of Axis Conference.
MEMPHIS LOCATION UPGRADES - $2,300,000
We are always working to keep our facilities excellent and rst-class for the people in our church. Depending on the amount of Vision giving, we are hoping to complete a number of projects in 2025 including improvements to our parking lots at Highland and Austin Peay, installing new visual auditorium upgrades at Highland, updating landscape at Austin Peay, upgrading audio equipment at all Memphis locations, and more.
SERVING OUR REGION
PRISON LOCATION - $50,000
2024 saw the launch of our rst-ever Life Church location inside of a correctional facility. Now, inmates gather every Sunday to experience worship, hear God’s Word, and build life-giving relationships while receiving pastoral care and being equipped to reenter society. As we reach forward, we’re believing to add more locations throughout the region in various correctional facilities.
MEMPHIS DREAM CENTER - $1,200,000
15 years ago, we founded the Memphis Dream Center and have been serving the needs of the Memphis community ever since. Whether it’s helping resource families in need through the Family Advocacy Center, mentoring children through Read2Lead, helping those involved in the foster care system, and more, the Memphis Dream Center continues to expand and evolve to greater serve our city.

IMPACTING OUR WORLD
GLOBAL MISSIONS INVESTMENTS - $2,000,000

Some of these ministry partners include Hand of Hope, Vapor Ministries, A21, Vision Rescue, Tra cking Hope, Forward Memphis, Fellowship of Israel Related Ministries, Light to the Nations, Convoy of Hope, and many others.
MAKE ROOM COACHING - $250,000
Make Room exists to train, develop, and resource pastors and leaders all over the world. Through our Make Room Whiteboard Sessions, the Make Room Cohort, and our International Make Room events in Europe, South Africa, and South America, we’re committed to stewarding the in uence God has given us.
GLOBAL EXPANSION FUND - $3,000,000
Whether it’s advancing existing regions of The Life Church or launching new locations, this fund is designed to prepare us to say yes when God opens a door. Right now, we are evaluating several God-opportunities to expand The Life Church into more regions around the world.
NEXT GENERATION BUILDING
The total project cost for this building is $15 million. We want to move into the building only owing $7.5 million (50% equity). We already have $3 million in cash set aside for the project. This leaves $4.5 million remaining to raise. Our goal is to break ground in Spring 2026. These are the benchmarks needed to reach our goal:
• 2024 urgent need - $1.5 million by December 31, 2024
• 2025 need - $3 million by December 31, 2025
