Kingdom Business Leaders Network is committed to operating under the authority of the local church and with the approval of the church's senior pastor and leadership.
Our program was created by business leaders for business leaders and is most successful when it is overseen by a mature Christian businessperson. This person can be a former businessperson who now serves on the church staff or a non-staff church member, but he or she must have a strong business background and be willing to commit up to 20 hours per month to oversee the program.

Once you have been approved, you will be assigned an implementation manager to guide you through the complete process, access to an online Kingdom Business Leaders Network Handbook, and web access to the members-only area.
It typically takes about six months from the launch of the program to start groups, which is the main thrust of the program, but it can be as little as three months. We also offer a "BETA group" option that can begin almost immediately.
Our heart is to serve Christian business leaders, to help them implement best practices in their businesses, and to become better disciples of Jesus Christ.
Candidates for the program are business owners and corporate leaders.
A business owner is defined as someone with a majority interest in a for-profit business in
which their business is or will be the majority source of their income.
A corporate leader is defined as someone who holds a Senior Leadership role or serves as a C-Suite Executive of a private or public corporation.
Currently, our program is not intended for non-profit leaders.
Each candidate goes through an initial application process provided by KBLN to confirm their eligibility for the program at your church.
We leave this up to the discretion of the individual church.
KBLN has a partnership with RightNow Media to offer access to an extensive @Work library specifically curated for business leaders. Explore topics such as Your Faith and Work, Defining Your Organization, Building Your Team, Human Resources, and more. If your church is not already a partner of RightNow Media, we can offer you a referral to receive discounted access to their digital media. If your church has another content source, you may continue using it in conjunction with the KBLN software.
A typical KBLN business leader group meets twice a month, taking breaks over the summer and for the holidays.

Group facilitators are not charged group tuition.
KBLN provides its program at no cost to your church.
Group tuition fees are optional. If applicable, the group tuition goes directly to the Partner Church that is overseeing the groups, not to Kingdom Business Leaders Network.
