Access Partners develops businesses
that facilitate church planting
in locations least reached by the gospel.

Our passion is to see the gospel proclaimed to the nations through the planting of Biblical indigenous churches in the 10/40 window. We want to help those who have this same passion and we seeks to glorify God by helping missionaries to bring the gospel to the ends of the earth through business.

The Need
One of the greatest needs in the cause of world missions is access to the gospel.  As the apostle Paul wrote in his letter to the Romans, “But how are they to call on him in whom they have not believed?”  And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard?

For centuries people have been traveling as missionaries to share the gospel with those who have never heard it.  But in places where worldviews, cultures,  and governments are hostile to Christianity, access to this message is increasingly limited.  In other words, millions of people in the world have little chance to hear the gospel preached.  In the past, Christians have been able to enter restricted access countries as students and humanitarian workers.  However, as governments continue to crack down on mission work, it has become more difficult to obtain or even retain these visas.

The Response
One solution to this obstacle is the creation of viable, for-profit businesses that both contribute to a country’s economy and provide sustainability and credibility for those wishing to advance the gospel in that country.  Why?  Credible business has proven to be an avenue on which even closed countries are willing to let foreigners through.  To those ends, Access Partners seeks to create businesses that facilitate healthy church planting among the least reached.  To be sure, we’re not talking about creating fake businesses or businesses that only serve the purpose of making money.  We’re talking about real businesses that directly allow church planters to form relationships with people who have never heard the gospel.  To facilitate this work, Access Partners works together with missions organizations to start up and optimize businesses, enabling church planters to reach otherwise inaccessible locations and communities.
