From Rev. Dr. Mike Johnson, founder and president of Ascending Leaders:  “We exist to be churches’ best ally for better discipleship.  Last year you helped, through AL, 30 churches help 34,000 disciples grow.  COVID-19 slowed our work, but did not stop us.  We have coached 18 churches thus far this year.  Soon you will see our fall ‘Highpoint’, featuring two very small churches in a rural Kansas town that we are able to help because of you.  Metrics show the churches you help through us improve at discipleship and the result is that their people evangelize more, serve those in need more, and live more Christ-centered lives.  In these tumultuous times, churches need, more than ever before, to improve discipleship.  Thank you for your support!”
