“Sitting in on some of Dave’s training in Austin a few years ago and reading Future Church were the tipping points for me to attend the Funnel Fusion certification training. I saw clearly how this could significantly augment my work at Wheaton College.
Now that I’ve completed the training, I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for you. If I never charge a penny for consulting, the personal and professional value of the Funnel Fusion training far outweighs the cost to complete it. Apart from life experiences following Jesus Christ, it may be the best concentrated training I’ve had since my time in the Marine Corps.
Thank you so very much for your significant impact on the Church for the sake of the Gospel.” — Chuck Barber

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from traditional trainings or conferences?
This is a highly interactive, hands-on experience focused on learning by doing, so you leave equipped to facilitate real conversations, lead real teams, and drive real change. You’ll gain a proven toolbox for guiding pastors toward greater clarity while also developing the discernment to apply the right tool in the right moment.
Do I need to be an experienced consultant to benefit from certification?
No. This certification is for leaders who regularly guide, coach, or influence others—not just professional consultants. Whether you’re a network leader, pastor, or trusted advisor, you’ll gain a proven toolbox to help leaders get clear on where they’re headed and how they’ll train up disciples to get there.
What happens after certification is complete?
Certification isn’t a one-time event—it’s the beginning of an ongoing journey. You’ll continue to have access to the tools and resources, while staying connected to a growing community of peers using them in real ministry settings. Many graduates keep sharpening their skills over time and go on to help more teams build disciple-making pathways.
