Team Impact Ministries issues four types of ministerial credentials. The type of credential issued is based upon the description of the candidate’s ministry experience and/or education.

Credentials are valid for a period of 12 months after which time members must renew their credentials:

  1. Affiliate: For anyone who has a definable full or part-time ministry such as the pastor of a local church, apostle, prophet, evangelist, teacher, Christian Counselor, Christian educator, marketplace ministry, etc. Membership in the network is for those who are already ordained through other organizations or ministries but would like to be a part of what Team Impact Ministries stands for and is doing. They will be able to participate as a full member, and network with other like-minded and like hearted ministers. Candidates must have a proven ministry for a minimum period of five years.
  2. Ordination: This category of membership is for those who have a clear calling to ministry and wish to be ordained by Team Impact Ministries. Candidates must be possession of a minimum of a 120- credit Bachelor’s Degree in a ministry discipline or equivalent. Candidates who have a proven ministry for a minimum period of five years will also be considered.
  1. Pastor in Training: This category of membership is for those people who are currently serving within a ministry that is in the process of training them towards becoming a five-fold minister. This registration category is ideal for pastors who already have students who attend their Bible Colleges and who would like to have accountability for their Pastors in Training from the start of their training up until their ordination and commission.We encourage all Team Impact University students and graduates to become a member of Team Impact Ministries. We also welcome those who are currently enrolled at other Bible Colleges and Universities to become part of Team Impact Ministries as this credentialing will bring accountability and integrity to their callings as they progress.
  2. Business affiliate: This category of membership is for those people who God has called to be Kings in the kingdom. Many times our focus is so on formal ministry, we forget that God has called many to be Kings in the Kingdom. We would like to extend an invitation to those men and woman of God that He has called to business and finances. This category of registration is for both the individual and business to be registered with Team Impact Ministries. We want to make an IMPACT in the business world, and together networking the businesses of the Kingdom of God we can. We will also connect business people of like mindedness to assist one another in both business acumen and prayer.

Benefits of being associated with T.I.M

members

  1. Accountability

Biblical accountability cannot be done by an organization. It must be done through relationships.  You will have the opportunity to meet peer level ministers who may have more experience or knowledge than you. This valuable opportunity can only come through meeting and building relationships with those ministers, ministries, and churches with who you are in one accord.

Team Impact Ministries will provide legal and spiritual recognition of the calling and ministry God has already placed on you. Together we as a body will assist you in the fulfillment of that ministry. There is great power in unity and so much more can be achieved if we are one! The last prayer that Jesus prayed before he went to the cross was: “Father let them become as one”, that prayer is still a call to the Body of Christ today.

  1. Fellowship

Team Impact Ministries provides fellowship and relationship between independent churches and ministries of like faith while maintaining local ministry sovereignty and control. There will be opportunities for corporate missions involvement, fellowship gatherings, youth programs, and other ministries. Currently Team Impact Ministries is taking advantage of the current age that we live in, social media platforms are a great way to connect and Team Impact Ministries has a vision to interact with pastors and leaders on these platforms as well.

  1. Education

Team Impact Ministries is in association with Team Impact Christian University USA and you will be able to further your studies from Certificate to Doctor of Ministry level at discounted prices. This will help to develop you as a leader as well as your ministry. For further details, please go to www.tiuniversity.com.

Pastors and Christian leaders can begin their own ministry-based schools by registering with Team Impact Christian University USA and implementing their courses. With this form of schooling, pastors and Christian leaders can become Dean of their own Bible College and mentor their own leaders.

  1. Connection

You can enjoy a relationship with those who will affirm you without trying to control you and help you without trying to dictate you.  You know what you’re calling and ministry gift is and connection will provide confirmation and affirmation from others in ministry.

  1. Consultation

You have others to call on for input and will have access to insights, strategies for more effective ministry, problem solving guidance, and confirmation in the way God may be leading you.

  1. Covering

You have the protection, credibility, and affirmation of relational accountability without being controlled or put in a box. There is no longer a feeling of “standing alone” or being isolated and nor is there a feeling of losing your identity or uniqueness and ability to minister. You and your ministry are under a corporate prayer covering.
Members do not have to end any other affiliations in order to be a part of Team Impact Ministries.

  1. Care

You will have access to pastoral counseling by experienced, anointed ministerial mentors who can encourage, help, and love you.
