The Saddleback Church Leadership Academy seeks to equip, empower, and encourage individuals to pursue their calling to church planting or ministry leadership — to live out their purpose and passion for Gods kingdom. Our mission is to develop the next generation of leaders to plant and lead new churches, multi-site campuses, and the ministries that will serve them.
Launch is a part-time launch-phase program for leaders who are planting a church or starting a multi-site campus. Participants receive training in all phases of launching a church or campus from some of the most respected experts in the country.
Elevate is a one-year full-time residency designed for leaders who are preparing to plant a church or lead a multi-site campus. It is uniquely designed to provide leadership development experiences through hands-on ministry leadership opportunities at one of Saddleback's many campuses throughout Southern California.
Accelerate is a year-long full-time apprenticeship designed for leaders who are called to staff leadership at a church plant, multi-site campus, or existing church. Programs include children's ministries, student ministries, worship arts, small groups, or church administration.
Discover is a 4-month, part-time internship designed for college students or recent graduates. We have opportunities for you to develop your skills with internships in leadership, communications, journalism, graphics, film, music, social media, accounting, and more!
