Planting Anywhere and Everywhere in the Power of the Spirit.
(Isa. 61:1-4, Mal. 1:11)
01
GET TRAINED.
TOP-LEVEL EDUCATION.
"Record the vision and inscribe it on tablets, that the one who reads it may run with it." (Hab. 2:2)
"Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. (Prov. 4:7)
We want to provide you with the best teaching, insights, and bible training we have ("record the vision and inscribe it on tablets") so you are enabled to learn, dream, and hear from the Holy Spirit. Our heart is that you "read and run with it" and "with all your getting, get understanding." Besides our online school, we are also developing a mini-campus for in-residence mentoring and training.
02
INVEST IN YOUR MINISTRY USING OUR FLEXIBLE TUITION POLICY.
No leader left behind.
We don't want economic barriers to hinder any student, planter or leader from being equipped. Hence, FSI has an exciting Flexible Tuition Policy, where you determine your tuition rate based on your financial situation. You can pay the regular course fee or reduce it to what is most appropriate for you—even to no charge at all. No approval is needed. You make the decision. And if free tuition is what your situation dictates, it is meant to be a guilt-free selection. We just want you to be trained.
For those with more economic resources, in addition to your paid tuition, you can make additional contributions to FSI in appreciation for the course, the instructor, or simply because you believe in our mission: Support FSI.
03
LEVERAGE THE POWER OF REMOTE LEARNING.
"“I [Paul] am a Jew, born in Tarsus, but brought up in this city [Jerusalem], educated under Gamaliel..." (Acts 22:3). Paul traveled nearly 600 miles in ancient times to receive his education. We don't need to do that anymore.
People talk of 24/7 worship and 24/7 prayer; why not 24/7 teaching? Based on Is. 54:2 we are doing just that. "Enlarge the place of your tent; stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, spare not; lengthen your cords, and strengthen your pegs." You can get online whenever you want to study, for as long or short as you are inspired. You can log on from any time zone in the world. It's completely flexible to your schedule.
Never in history has learning been made more accessible to all peoples in every corner of the globe. Every tongue, tribe, and nation (Rev. 7:9) can be simultaneously trained for the work of the gospel. Technology is the new Roman roads. So whether you live in a mega-city or rural village, everyone can be taught together side-by-side.
Having been highly trained himself, Paul made it clear to Timothy, "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, handling accurately the word of truth" (2 Tim. 2:15). Certification is a means for us to show you've been accountable, disciplined, and responsible with our courses. Like Timothy we want you to be of "proven worth" (Phil. 2:2).
04
PLANTING TOGETHER,
IF IT MAKES SENSE.
Paul deeply valued Timothy and Silas in planting churches because of their kindred spirit (Phil. 2:20). This too is our priority.
You need not join Five Stones Impact (FSI) as a church planting family to utilize our resources. You are completely free to learn and study our courses on your own or as part of another church planting group. However, if you are unaffiliated and desire to be part of FSI, feel free to reach out to us. We have a three-step process for approving planters that would like to join the FSI family.

THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION HAS NEVER BEEN MORE IMPORTANT.
Jesus devoted himself deeply to education. (Luke 2:46-47)
