We are committed to equipping urban leaders, churches, and movements to reproduce disciple-making churches, fresh expressions, and businesses on a mission. Nitrogen was launched out of Impact Church, located in West Michigan, in 2008 by Phil Strucmyer. Shortly after, Troy Evans became a partner serving the United States and England. Nitrogen has come alongside thousands of churches, planters, and leaders to better equip them to minister in the urban context.

"One thing that is proprietary to the church is starting more churches."
In most cases, movements are closing as many churches as they start. With limited leaders and a lack of know-how, the task of planting urban churches has become extremely difficult. This feeling of defeat is stifling the urban urgency that is desperately needed for a sustainable movement of Urban Church Multiplication. Nitrogen has assembled a team of urban practitioners with decades of experience to provide the much-needed support for those looking to see healthy urban churches planted!

We provide these training sessions through a few mediums.

Urban ministry can be extremely lonely and isolating work. What we know is that seeking wise counsel is key to the success of every pastor and leader. Specifically, a church planter is 10 times more likely to stay in the fight if they have a pre- and post-coach investing in their life.

Most church planting experts would agree that creating a network of churches that are laser-focused on church multiplication is the most effective way to plant churches. This is especially true for urban church planting. We would leverage our 20 years of experience in building a church planting network within a denomination, districts, and churches to work alongside regional leaders in constructing the necessary infrastructure for a healthy urban multiplication network.
