TENTMAKERS Purpose

To select and train uncommon leaders.

TENTMAKERS Mission

We equip and empower disciples to be Biblical tentmakers who live out their God-given calling while transforming culture through Christ, one relationship at a time.

TENTMAKERS Vision

To raise up and train leaders of integrity with the compassion, courage and faith in Jesus Christ, who have the imagination, moral fiber and tenacity to lead effectively in all walks of life, including: business, family, education, government, the arts, media and the Church.

Why TENTMAKERS Christian Leadership Training?

Our name comes from the Apostle Paul who conducted his tentmaking trade while furthering God’s Kingdom (Acts 18:3).

Biblical Tentmakers are people who:

  • Know Christ and love God.

  • Live a life-on-mission, in community, as disciples of Jesus

  • Lead while bringing out the best in others

  • Pursue lifelong learning while practicing Biblical citizenship

  • Integrate work and ministry as one while making disciples

  • Train and grow in the skills, disciplines and attitudes for discipleship and leadership

Programs

Our programs include training on twelve key character building skill sets. Learning is from the modeling, discovery and practice of time tested principles. Some of these learning experiences take place at Wilderness North, a 1500-acre retreat, training and conference center in the Superior National Forest in northeast Minnesota.

Transformational Christian Leadership Training

TENTMAKERS training is drawn from Biblical wisdom and principles. It is:

  • Unique, powerful and transformational

  • Led by a Christ-centered team with intensive interaction

  • Conducted in an environment of affirmation, discipline, and encouragement
