Get Started
Train entrepreneurs with GENESIS.
This ready-to-go curriculum will give entrepreneurs in your community practical business acumen along and help them integrate biblical wisdom along the way. In just nine weeks, participants refine their business and build a business plan they can execute.
How it Works
FIND ENTREPRENEURS
They might call themselves self-employed, have a side-hustle, or be dreaming about taking their hobby to a small business. There are entrepreneurs in your church and community who would benefit from honing their practical business skills in a community of faith.
Activate a Volunteer
Facilitating Genesis is a great way to activate a volunteer who wants to apply their business experience to their church volunteering. The OCEAN team will guide them along the way with 1:1 training, facilitator scrips and playbooks, and weekly checkins.
Get Started
The nine-week program connects entrepreneurs to each other, to the practical tools they need for running a business, and draws them closer to God along the way. The OCEAN team provides all the technical support and training material so you can focus on entrepreneurs in your community.

Why Entrepreneurs?
Healthy Founders
Entrepreneurs are visionary dreamers and builders but are at disproportionate risk for disordered mental health, isolation, and financial ruin.
When entrepreneurs have access to practical business training that integrates timeless biblical wisdom and connects them to a community, they are better equipped to stay healthy for the long haul.
Strong Businesses
Strong businesses provide employment opportunities. Their services & products that make customers lives tangibly better.
When those businesses are led by a healthy entrepreneur, they offer life-giving and dignified work in vibrant company cultures. They operate with generosity, integrity, and care.
Thriving Communities
When a healthy founder launches and leads a strong business, the effects ripple out into the rest of the world.
By sustaining economic activity and actively shaping the culture around their company, entrepreneurs help people live out their purpose and dignity at work and in every area of life.
