From Commitment

to Construction

The second phase is about moving from a good idea to a shovel-ready project. We provide the financial modeling, deal structuring, and capital strategy to secure your future.

New Chapter Ventures has unlocked millions in economic development for communities while creating jobs, building affordable housing, and creating financial stability for churches.

Defining the Vision

Before we talk money, we must perfect the story. In this 3-month sprint, we focus on internal alignment and external validation with:


  • Market Validation: We stress-test your concept against market data to ensure it is viable before you spend a dollar.

  • Storytelling & Vision Casting: We help you craft a narrative and assets that excites your congregation and potential investors.

  • Execution Strategy: We create a high-level action plan that outlines the critical path to launch.
