Wesleyan Impact Partners
Wesleyan Impact Partners is a national nonprofit investing in ministries courageously building thriving congregations and flourishing communities. We are creating an ecosystem of congregations, clergy, and spiritual entrepreneurs, fueled by our impact investors, borrowers, and philanthropists. Together we are on a Spirit-led movement to empower the church to achieve its purpose – building a better world of love, grace, joy and belonging today and in the future.
The Igniting Imagination podcast features rich conversations with prominent leaders from across the cultural and spiritual landscape that invite listeners into new relationships with themselves, their church, and their communities. It offers ideas to strengthen spiritual practice, build community, and inspire courage and innovation.
