A training & workshop series to help you grow your digital ministry and engage people effectively online. Do more than just stream church - learn how to build community & disciple online.
Engaging people online can seem daunting... we've been there too!
This interactive learning experience will equip you with everything you need to create a digital ministry strategy and engage your people online. If you're asking yourself these questions, then Altar Academy is for you:
Define your mission & vision, build a strategy, and outline a roadmap.
Know exactly which tools you need to get started & get trained on how to use them.
With our self-paced tools, assessments, & personalized consulting sessions, you can get your whole team on the same page.
Connect with other forward-thinking churches.
Learn how to use our platform to easily engage newcomers online and make them feel welcome and known in your community. With no barriers to entry, Altar makes it easy to Invite your next door neighbor or a friend on the other side of the country.
Overcome digital fatigue with a new and more organic way of gathering online. This is not your average live stream event. People stay longer on events where they are personally engaged with not just the content, but other people in the event. And the best part? People come back to events where they feel known and seen.
With so many use cases, Altar is a tool for dynamic community building and discipleship. Use Altar Live 7 days a week - small groups, prayer meetings, or social gatherings can all be hosted on the same platform. No more sending people different links for different platforms.

Request InformationAltar Academy offers four weeks of online training and consultation through four workshops (which are recorded and made available on-demand), PDF resource worksheets, and at least two hours of individual consulting with a digital ministry coach. In addition, included in Altar Academy are onboarding sessions with the Altar Live team, a 6-month subscription to Altar Live up to 70 members, and the ability to interact in an online discussion forum with other participants.
A mixture of both. All live sessions will be recorded as well so you can watch as a team on your own time. You’ll have access to everything in the Altar Academy course for your specific cohort for 30 days after the four-week program is complete, and ongoing access to all Altar Live training courses.
You can definitely add more participants from your team or church after your cohort launches. Contact us and we will help register additional participants.
We’ll be using the Altar Live platform for the live virtual gatherings! Everything else in the program (on-demand sessions, downloads, discussion forum) will be on our online course platform. The Altar team will get you a login that will give you access to everything you need to maximize your Altar Academy experience.
When you register for Altar Academy, you will be billed for the cost of the Academy and your 6-month subscription (up to 150 members). After your first 6-months of Altar Live, your billing for your Altar Live Engagement Platform subscription will change to monthly billing. If you exceed 150 members during the first 6 months, you will be prorated.
