Compelling Preaching Initiative

This organization supports projects that help Christian preachers develop their skills in preaching effectively and engaging diverse audiences. Since 2022, the Compelling Preaching Initiative has awarded grants for projects that it believes will inspire, encourage, and guide people’s faith. Funded projects include the development of preaching resources; study and mentorship programs; and groups that address preaching in specific cultural contexts, such as Black, Hispanic, and Korean congregations.
