01 Welcome
Impact 10,000
Healthy Pastors Leading Healthy Churches
Helping 10,000 churches grow healthy and strong by 2031 through coaching, curriculum, and community.
02 The Problem
A Leadership Crisis
The American Church is facing a leadership crisis.
Pastors are aging out. Fewer young leaders are stepping in. Burnout is rising.
Churches are struggling to find qualified leaders. The pastoral pipeline is breaking faster than it can be rebuilt.
Impact 10,000 exists to change that.
This vision brings proven coaching, practical curriculum, and a community of fellow pastors who refuse to lead alone. Our goal is simple: help under-resourced pastors build thriving churches that last.
When pastors struggle, the church struggles.
Pastors today face intense personal pressure, battling emotional exhaustion and ongoing family strain.
On top of this, many experience deep isolation, with few safe relationships and little meaningful support or coaching to sustain them.
By the numbers
The Data Tells the Story:
The median age of pastors continues to climb, while the number of leaders under 40 is lower than ever.
At the same time, burnout rates are rising and seminary enrollment is steadily declining, creating a shrinking pipeline of future pastors.

03 The Initiative
Helping Pastors Build Healthy, Thriving Churches
Impact 10,000 is a bold vision to help pastors get the proven coaching, practical curriculum, and supportive community they need to grow healthier and lead stronger churches.
Most pastors can’t afford coaching,
but they can’t afford to lead without it.
Impact 10,000 exists to make that coaching possible.
Curriculum
Our curriculum provides a clear, tailored roadmap to grow your leadership, team, and church. With the 5 Shifts to transform outreach and culture, the Middle Method to engage your core, and training to equip your team, it’s delivered through Curriculum Packs and weekly coaching to lead you to God’s vision.
Weekly Coaching
Weekly Coaching empowers you to grow your church by addressing your unique challenges. Through personalized group calls, you can ask specific questions about your church’s context—whether it’s leadership, outreach, or team dynamics—and receive tailored guidance and practical solutions.
Growth Plans
Our Growth Plans provide a virtual intensive designed to bring clarity and alignment to you and your leadership team. You’ll gain a clear understanding of where your church and team stand today, a defined long-term model for healthy growth and a one-year growth plan aligned to that direction.
Community
Our community welcomes you into a supportive network of pastors pursuing growth and God’s vision. Join to learn from others’ experiences, share your challenges, and find encouragement, knowing you’re not doing ministry alone.

Scott Wilson
Founder & President
After more than 35 years of pastoring, I’ve seen it all: the joy of growth, the pain of plateau, and the daily challenges that come with leading a church. When I stepped into church consulting, my goal was simple: help pastors build healthy, thriving churches that reach more people for the Gospel.
But along the way, I noticed a gap.
The churches that needed the most help were often the ones that couldn’t afford to get it.
That’s why we started Impact 10,000, a movement where churches help other churches.
When healthy churches invest in under-resourced ones, the entire Body of Christ gets stronger.
That’s what Impact 10,000 is all about: churches helping churches, growing together, and advancing the Gospel farther than any one church could alone.
