FaithWorks questions
What church leaders ask before starting FaithWorks.
A ForgeWorks Academy initiative that helps churches equip members to build stronger businesses, develop meaningful careers and practise responsible stewardship through structured learning and mentorship.
Both, deliberately. The content is practical business and career capability, taught within a stewardship framework that treats work as a place of faithfulness rather than a separate compartment.
A venue, a coordinator and a committed cohort. FaithWorks provides the curriculum, facilitation, participant materials and the structure for the mentoring model.
Cohorts typically run between fifteen and forty participants. Smaller groups work well for mentoring depth, and larger congregations are usually served in successive cohorts.
Yes. Short-format teaching and speaking engagements are available for churches that do not require a full cohort programme, and often serve as an introduction to it.
Participants are connected with suitable business and career mentors from within the church community, following a structured cadence and conversation framework so the relationship continues after teaching ends.
Programmes are quoted against cohort size, format and duration, with options for churches at different scales. Speak to ForgeWorks Academy and we will propose a model that fits your congregation.
