Discovering the holiness of work

Ignite your journey.

The Ignition Sequence is a series of workshops designed to help the people of God reclaim work as a holy calling.

Ignite: Imagination 

What is faithful work?



Ignite: Imagination is a one-hour seminar that unpacks what we should (and shouldn’t) expect from our work as well as God’s call to integrate faith and work. 

Ignite: Possibility

How do I connect my vocation to God’s mission? 


Ignite: Possibility is a half-day workshop that presents a holistic view of God’s mission, works out practical ways to live out God’s kingdom values, and explores the concept of faithful risk.

Ignite: Opportunity

How can I connect my vocation to God’s global mission through community development?

Ignite: Opportunity is an online course that walks through  God’s global mission, IDEAS’ mission, vision, and values, missional vocation, and living out kingdom values. It also takes a peek behind the curtain of cross-cultural living.

Celebrating removing barriers to dignity

Stories of Transformation

Alma was born in Guatemala with a disability called spina bifida. Unable to walk, she spent the first 14 years of her life isolated, locked in a room, confined to a bed or the floor. Her mother said she was a mistake. Her father said she was not his daughter. Alma wanted to go to school and have friends, but her disability made that impossible.
