What We Do

By God’s grace—and through the prayers, service, and generosity of our supporters—we come alongside national and global-level leaders who influence thousands of churches and countless young people worldwide.

Custom-created resources for your youth ministry.

We Offer Custom Solutions

We care for leaderscollaborate with them, and create custom solutions that strengthen church and parachurch ministries engaged in youth discipleship and gospel transformation. Many of these leaders carry bold vision for their denominations, networks, and movements, yet often lack the strategic support they need to see that vision flourish. That’s where IYS steps in. We help influential youth ministers start, strengthen, scale, and sustain programs, projects, and initiatives. From time to time, we also help them launch new ministries, too. 

We provide:
  • Executive coaching that develops healthy, resilient leaders.
  • Strategic consultation that clarifies direction and aligns mission.
  • Contextualized discipleship resources crafted uniquely for their culture and calling.
And because leaders are human beings before they are public servants, our work often includes benevolence and pastoral care—supporting them in the hidden places so they can lead faithfully in the public ones.

Some of our partners have included the Christian Endeavor, the Christian and Missionary Alliance (USA), Go Live Dare Zambia, Global Leadership Summit Next Gen (Australia/New Zealand), ICY Africa, the Kenya Assemblies of God, LeadNow (Germany), NxtMove, Revive Europe, Youth for Christ International (Africa), Wheaton Academy Global, the World Evangelical Alliance Youth Commission, Word of Life (Nigeria), World Hope Network (Pakistan), and many more. We are beyond grateful for these friendships.

We help start, strengthen, scale and sustain youth ministries around the world.
