The Fully Funded
Church Planter

The mission is clear, but the funding gap can feel… impossible.

You’re called to plant a church that’s deeply missional — not just replicate old models. But funding that kind of work takes a different path. Reliant helps you build a funding approach that fits your mission and sustains the work God has called you to.

Support raising isn’t just about raising money — it’s about staying focused on your mission.

At Reliant, we specialize in working with church planters who want to stay deeply missional and financially sustainable. We provide:

  • Training to help you communicate your vision and invite others to partner with you.
  • Personal coaching at every step as you build your team of financial and prayer partners.
  • Full employment services — payroll, benefits, and compliance — so you can focus on ministry, not admin.

We’re here to help you make more ministry possible, and to do it sustainably.

Take the first step towards planting sustainably today.

Planter Stories

"(Reliant) has enabled us to plant a church on the South side of Houston, TX in a black neighborhood that is neglected and distressed. Being with Reliant Mission, we can have two full-time pastors which has allowed us and enabled us to have more means for the mission of God. We are able to make disciples, multiply neighborhood parishes, plant churches prayerfully, and partner strategically on the south side of Houston."
Demeko Bivens | Houston, TX
"God gave us a vision to plant a neighborhood-based church in Indy, and we knew no 'conventional' church plant funding model would have worked for us. People in our neighborhood are culturally aware of 'church,' and have zero interest. With Reliant, we were able to plant slowly and missionally, and the fruit of it is undeniable 7 years later."
Jon Crawford | Indy, IN
