What People Are Saying About V3 Praxis Community Cohorts
Macho Lara
New York, NY
"V3’s training didn’t just equip me to plant a church—it reshaped the way I see community, mission, and discipleship. The rhythms of communion, community, commission, and core that we live by today were born in that formative season. I’m deeply grateful for a movement that prioritizes Spirit-led formation, grounded theology, and real-life missional presence."
Ben Lewis
Lima, Peru
“I am passionate about Latin Americans forming a Jesus-centered ecclesiology. The cohort gave me clarity about who I am and how to help others follow Jesus into the world.”
Jeremy & Monica Chambers
Denver, CO
“We had already started a few missional communities when we joined the V3 cohort, but we learned a lot from others in our group and from V3’s tools—especially around contextualizing mission in the neighborhood and building healthy teams. When we start new communities or coach others, we regularly draw from that training.”
Bill & Betty Clifton
Waynesboro, VA
“We have loved the V3 cohort experience. We’ve been affirmed in our calling and gained many practical tools for this work that we didn’t have before.”
Today's leaders have been trained to draw a crowd and preach a good sermon, but few have been equipped for the future the church is facing. Many are starving for wisdom, guidance, and grounded tools on how to cultivate new types of church bodies. When we explore doing this together within a praxis community cohort, it is a much richer experience than going at it alone.
