Most people come to Re:generation looking for relief from a struggle, but relief or behavior change is not the ultimate goal. Re:generation points people toward full devotion to Christ, helping them see that lasting freedom is found in a daily relationship with Jesus.
Re:generation uses closed groups to create the trust and consistency needed for people to know and be known by others. Over time, these relationships provide a context for greater honesty, accountability, and encouragement.
Re:generation is designed to be led by lay leaders, many of whom have experienced life transformation through the ministry themselves. This model expands your church’s capacity to care for hurting people, gives lay leaders meaningful ownership, and helps lighten the burden on church staff and leadership.
We believe the local church should be a place of healing where people can be honest about what is really happening in their lives. Re:generation creates an environment where struggles can be brought into the light and met with biblical truth, grace, and authentic community.
Re:generation intentionally brings people with different struggles together rather than separating groups by specific issues. Mixed-issue groups and strategically designed curriculum help move the focus from behavior modification to the underlying heart and worship issues we all share.
Re:generation is designed to help people become more connected to the life of the local church. Participants are encouraged to pursue church membership, find mentors, and serve in their church as they continue growing in Christ.
Re:generation is a biblically-based discipleship ministry that helps your church care for adults navigating a hurt, struggle, or pattern of sin. Designed for people with a wide range of struggles and church backgrounds, Re:generation gives your team a clear ministry framework to help people pursue healing, freedom, and greater maturity in Christ through the truth of the gospel.
Re:generation equips your church to provide structured, in-house care through trained lay leaders, expanding your capacity to support members while helping prevent staff burnout.
Churches of all sizes run Re:generation - from 200 to 10,000+ in attendance.
People have found freedom from addiction, anxiety, pride, anger, shame, pornography, eating disorders, people-pleasing, depression, guilt, and more.
Re:generation isn't just for "those people" - it's for anyone hungry for transformation.
Re:generation isn't just for churches. Non-profits, treatment centers, correctional facilities, schools, and other organizations use the same biblically-based discipleship ministry to help the people they serve find healing and freedom in Christ.

Our Church Leadership Podcast, regular blogs, and deep library of discipleship resources encourage and educate church leaders as they serve in their specific ministry context.
Follow in Jesus’ footsteps A few years ago, the church I helped to start, and pastor for twenty-one years, was full of people struggling to keep themselves together. I was no exception. All of us were scraping by, feeling defeated, drowning in discouragement, and seemingly broken beyond repair. Many of us had shattered our lives and thrown away our dreams. Our church was messy, confused, and in desperate need of restoration. Thankfully, the Lord was not done with us.
PodcastIn this episode of the Church Leadership Podcast, we’re sharing a talk that Dave Bruskas, Executive Director of Discipleship, gave at Church Leaders Conference 2025. Teaching from Luke 14, Dave reminds us of the true cost of following Jesus, and then challenges us to consider: Are we following Jesus on his terms, or ours? Dave encourages leaders to be disciples who are loyal to Jesus above all people, pursuits, and possessions. This message is an invitation for us all to rediscover the true cost and beauty of discipleship.
BlogThe best place to make disciples Pastoral care ministries are the best place in your church to make disciples—better than Sunday services, better than equipping ministries, better than bible studies, and better than mission trips. Do you believe me? Where else in your church does everyone walk through the door humbled, broken, and ready to listen? Pain creates captive and willing audiences. People desperate to get well are willing to do some of the hardest spiritual and relational work of their lives.
