Do you want to grow

as a Bible teacher?

  WE CAN HELP!  

Teach Equip exists to equip, encourage, and train gifted-to-teach Christians to become better teachers of God’s Word.

We do this by shepherding the heart, teaching faithful hermeneutics, and giving very practical “how to’s” in communicating.

FOUNDERS

Lindsay Schott

Kelly Needham

  • As a complementarian pastor, I could not recommend a better ministry to equip the women in your congregation for ministry.

    —Dr. Justin Jackson, Director of Theological Development at Stonegate Church

  • Teach Equip has impacted our church in some extraordinary ways! This course has given us stronger Bible study leaders, women’s event speakers, care ministry leaders, and small group facilitators.

    —Jennifer Curran, Women’s Ministry Director at Stonegate Church

  • There’s simply nothing out there as clear, thorough, hands-on and biblical as this program for equipping women Bible teachers.

    —Jimmy Needham, Worship and Teaching Pastor at Stonegate Church

  • I have been teaching the Bible for a while, but Teach Equip gave me the clarity I lacked on how to develop and deliver a message that is true to the text and crafted for my audience.

    —Shannon Popkin, author of Shaped by God's Promises and host of the “Live Like It's True” Podcast

  • Pastor, the women of your church are learning theology. Rather than outsourcing the theological development of women to those outside your church, why not develop those voices in your church?

    —Rodney Hobbs, Lead Pastor of Stonegate Church

  • Feel called to teach but fearful to start? Turns out many of us are! Teach Equip gave me both tools to use and space to grow as a Bible teacher.

    —Katie Zintek, Women’s Ministry Leader at Westwood Church

  • Some people have the gift of teaching, but few have the sacred ability to effectively show others how to teach. What a gift! Kelly and Lindsay possess that gift.

    —Geoff Mills, Care Pastor at Stonegate Church

  • More than just a training ground, Teach Equip is a discipleship program for those gifted and called to use the spiritual gift of teaching.

    —Cheyenne Werner, Women’s Ministry Director at Peace Church, Michigan

  • Teach Equip has been such a huge win for the women in our church family. Kelly and Lindsay’s ministry is truly equipping the saints for the work of ministry.

    —Brandon Curran, Groups Pastor at Stonegate Church

  • Signing up for Teach Equip felt really scary. I wasn’t sure if it was something I could do yet I had this deep desire to learn and wanted to grow in teaching the Bible. But I'm so glad I did!

    —Jennifer Stockett

  • Through Teach Equip I learned to correctly study a text, find my particular God-given voice as a teacher, and effectively convey well-rounded messages.

    —Sarah Garner

  • This program changed everything about the way I teach God’s Word! The experiences I’ve gained have allowed me to feel more confident in my speaking ability and articulation of God’s Word.

    —Charis Bird

  • I love to share God's truth with people and Teach Equip gave me the tools to know how to do it more effectively and confidently! It also helped me when I speak before crowds at work, which was an added bonus.

    —Alisha Woodall

  • Teach Equip was an invaluable program as a speaker and teacher. If you are thinking about this program… DO IT.

    —Lindsay Tucker

  • No matter the context of your teaching, whether it is from a stage or around a living room, Teach Equip provides valuable tools and resources to help you refine your teaching gift.

    —April Whalen

  • I felt that teaching was a spiritual gift of mine but, in many ways, I didn’t know where to start to grow as a Bible teacher. Teach Equip aided my development as a teacher greatly!

    —Stephanie Snow

Our Distinctives

Faithfulness > Followers

The goal is faithful stewardship, not a growing platform.

Church > Celebrity

The gift of teaching primarily exists to strengthen the local church.

Exposition > Charisma

The church needs excellent Bible teachers more than great public speakers.

Partnership > Division

Being complementarian should foster partnership between men and women teachers, while preserving their distinctiveness.

Community > Isolation

Teaching the Bible requires a life of confession and repentance with other people.
