A Light on a Thousand Hills is our kingdom assignment is to provide access to high-quality free ministry training online for all pastors.
★★★★★
A Light on a Thousand Hills has been established to provide pastors with access to high-quality biblically-based effective free ministry training.
The Axx program is called A Light on a Thousand Hills because we believe each pastor is a light in their community. Axx offers free ministry training online to people who are already pastors or those who are training to be pastors.
The better equipped you are as a pastor the brighter your light becomes. The brighter your light becomes the more people who will come out of the darkness and into the light of God.

Free Ministry Training Online for Pastors
A Light on a Thousand Hills has been established to provide pastors with a structured program of study. As many as 3.4 million pastors have never had the opportunity to receive high-quality training. Access to high-quality training is often limited by lack of money, persecution or where you live.
Why Axx?
The Greatest Need in the Church Today is to train pastors who live in the majority world or who are being persecuted. A Light on a Thousand Hills has been designed to meet this need.
According to the Center for Study for Global Christianity, only 5% of the pastors in the church today are trained. 2.2 million pastoral leaders (and as many as 3.4 million by some estimates) presently minister with no training whatsoever.
- 95% of the world pastors have not received any structured training
- 70% of the world pastors have not had any training
- 3,000,000 pastors in the world today remain untrained
5 Reasons Why?
A Light on a Thousand Hills will:
- Builds – Healthy growing Churches
- Leadership Development – Established and emerging leaders
- Leadership Integrity – Leadership based on biblical principles
