MDI MDI provides ministry leaders with high-caliber mentoring and innovative content to unleash their God-given potential. Krejcir, "Statistics on Pastors."

MDI believes God has strategically placed leaders around the world to care for His people. Many of these leaders are isolated in their circumstances and lack access to resources. MDI builds trusting relationships with these leaders by coming along side them to mentor, consult and equip them to achieve God's calling on their lives. MDI is empowering leaders to impact the world. "70% of ministry leaders are so stressed and burned out that they regularly consider leaving the ministry." - Dr. Richard J. Into Thy Word

Leaders are expected to be perfect. As such, they often have no one to turn to for personal advice and spiritual accountability, forcing them to be isolated within their own ministries. At MDI, God has placed a passion in our hearts to give leaders a safe place to talk. MDI privately mentors and consults with leaders in areas of: leadership development, vision casting, strategic planning, conflict resolution, staff development, family counseling, and more. Join others in business, medicine, teaching, ministry, and other professions who are using their specific skill-sets to build up leaders and their ministries around the world! Everyone has an untapped reservoir of knowledge. MDI connects this knowledge to fill leaders' specific needs. "At a time where there could have been chaos, MDI brought order. At a time where there could have been fear, MDI brought peace. And at a time where there could have been no direction, MDI brought a plan and God blessed those plans."

— Debbie French, Founder, Sweetwater House in Ghana

Before the doors open, our mentors gather to pray.

They pray for the ministry leaders we serve, the conversations that will take place, and the lives that will be impacted through mentoring and encouragement.

Prayer is at the heart of all we do.

This 250th Fourth of July, we’re especially grateful for the freedom we share and the lives that have been shaped through generations of sacrifice and service.

We don’t take for granted the opportunity to live in community, to gather with loved ones, and to be part of something larger than ourselves.

Wishing you a safe, restful, and meaningful Independence Day!

Steve Lorenz and Marti Scudder recently traveled to Uganda, spending time mentoring and coaching leaders at Amazima Ministries and connecting with other local ministries and organizations. Their focus was on encouraging leaders, providing guidance, and discerning next steps for impact.

Through your prayers, God provided wisdom, discernment, protection, and strength throughout their work. It was inspiring to witness His hand at work in these leaders and the communities they serve!

Marti recently had an incredible trip to Spain with Radooga Ministries, connecting with Board leaders and ministry partners. Their time was filled with meaningful conversations, prayerful reflection, and a firsthand look at the life-changing impact of Radobot clubs on children in Ukraine and Ukrainian refugee communities in Spain. Experiences like this inspire MDI to continue supporting leaders and organizations doing transformative work around the world.
