Assimilation has helped me to build our congregation. We’re serious about discipleship. We’ve learned how to handle guests so that we can bring them into a relationship with Christ. We help them to stick and stay in our church through the Assimilation system.

Nelson gives you a plan — then we get to wrestle with it, apply it and he is there to off­er suggestions based on how we are doing. I didn’t get the practical side of ministry in Seminary and this filled the gaps for me when I got the ‘big’ office at church. I knew how to preach — I … Read More

Being a part of this network has helped me to lead our church more effectively, reverse what had been a slow decline, mobilize greater numbers of our people in outreach and service, reach and retain more new people, and significantly raise the level of generosity in our church.

When I first heard about the eight church systems, my first thought was this could help the ministry of my church go to a whole new level. Well, it has!

The church systems are very good. But what makes Nelson so good is the bigger picture that he brings to everything. He knows so many people — both by coaching and as mentors — and reads so much that he is able to pass on the best of his learning to those in his network.

Your seminars and resources are so practical and helpful. I know that implementing the things I’ve learned from you has made it easier for God to work through our congregation to reach non-churched people from my community.
