The BILD Training System is a highly integrated set of programs and resources that enables church leaders around the world to accelerate the planting and establishing of churches by training their own leaders and establishing believers in their churches.
Hear testimonies from leaders around the world on how implementing BILD programs and resources in their churches and church networks is empowering all leaders and believers to fully participate in the progress of the gospel.
The BILD Training System is comprised of two major components, the BILD Institute and the Antioch School of Church Planting and Leadership Development. Together, they provide church leaders with a complete system for establishing every believer and training leaders at every level within their church, church network, or church-planting movement. Thousands of churches and leaders around the world are using these programs and resources to establish believers and train leaders with a vision of seeing the gospel progress and the Church spontaneously expand in their villages, towns, cities, countries and cultures.
The BILD Institute is a set of programs designed to help church leaders accomplish the task of equipping every member of their church–from basic establishment to high-level leadership training. The resources and programs are highly integrated, allowing participants to study together and progress in their development as their training and giftedness emerge in ministry.
The Antioch School provides church leaders with an accredited, disciplined tool for developing the next generation of leaders for their churches, church networks, or church-planting movements. Antioch School programs are truly church-based–delivered in the context of your ministry–enabling your emerging leaders to fully embed their training in the context of your ministry.
The core ingredients of The BILD Training System are firmly rooted in the New Testament and the patterns and practices used by the Apostle Paul as he planted and established churches. It is our belief that these ingredients are key to the successful expansion and establishment of churches and church networks worldwide.
Like Paul’s relationship with Timothy, BILD training takes place directly in the context of the expansion and establishment of churches. The training is delivered by mature leaders who can model and mentor every aspect of the training.
Timothy needed to build his life and ministry around sound doctrine and then master the Scriptures and the issues of culture that affected the churches. Following this pattern, BILD training focuses on character development, ministry skills, and biblical mastery.
Leadership qualification and assessment was very important to Paul and he devoted a lot of time to this topic in 2 Timothy. The BILD training system has a portfolio-based mentoring and assessment system at its core, providing tools for quality assessment and recognition.
Pastor Chadwick Mohan of New Life AG Church in Chennai, India (35,000+ members), shares how utilizing BILD resources has empowered their church leadership to lay a solid, biblical foundation in the lives of their church members, rethink the church as a "family of families" and lay a new pattern in their church for missions and doing theology fresh in their culture.

BILD has designed a system that creates an ordered training path that goes all the way from illiterate learners to doctoral level training. All of this training can be completed without ever leaving the ministry.
Resources have been created by BILD for the training and assessment of an individual’s character, academic, and ministry competency at all five levels of leadership training.
At the center of the training system is BILD Cloud, BILD’s web-based software platform, which enables leaders to conduct portfolio assessment and track the progress of their leaders at all training levels.
