Ending Relational Poverty
Join the Storehouse Movement
The Storehouse Movement is a 501(c)3 non-profit Christian ministry dedicated to ending relational poverty in our lifetime. Through online and in-person peer groups, training, and content, we broker deep relationships that accelerate whole-of-life prosperity, Kingdom impact and city transformation. Join the movement of leaders in the body of Christ building relational wealth and thriving communities.
What is relational poverty?
All trendlines show a marked deterioration of human connectedness, both in and out of the body of Christ. This is concurrent with, and actually hardwired into, a rampant self-identity crisis. Relational poverty is the primary obstacle to accomplishing the Great Commission.
God, through his Word, makes it clear that relational wholeness is His design. And Jesus, through the cross, makes ending relational poverty possible. This means the Great Commission is a relational mandate.

What happens when we end relational poverty?
We become fully alive and see the Kingdom of Heaven manifest more fully on the earth.
Personal Growth
Investing in the right kind of relationships reinforces who we really are through improving our emotional intelligence, spiritual stature, character/maturity and span of influence.
Resilient Disciples
As we give and receive freely in our relationships, we alter our brain chemistry to become more resilient and recover quicker from life's disruptions.
Kingdom Accomplishment
Our relationships directly influence our ability to accomplish our individual and group mission. Unencumbered, we now go exponentially further and faster then if we were to try it alone.
