The ministry's objective states a goal of spreading the word of Jesus Christ properly, which to them starts with an focus on church planting. Church planting takes place when a pastor creates a Sovereign Grace Church in a new location. In order to develop and foster a effective church, every pastor must participate in a training program to ensure that the church will flourish for years to come. Pastors that are interested in planting a church are able to fill out a profile with the ministry, which will be evaluated by the elders within the church. As soon as the application passes the initial acceptance stage, the pastor is placed in a training program. This 10-month Pastors' College helps prepare the pastor for the launch of his planted church. Sovereign Grace plants churches in various areas throughout the United States, Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America. Every year, the ministry hosts many special events geared at Christian worshipers. One of the most vital is the WorshipGod conference that is held biannually. Individuals go over the theology, practice, and joy of God-honoring prayer while spreading the word of Jesus Christ. In 2013, for the first time ever Sovereign Grace Ministries is hosting its WorshipGod conference on both the East and West coasts. The conference will focus on the concept of loyalty, with a particular message for the prayer team of a church. Because a worship team works week in and week out, frequently without the thanks of a congregation, the conference is made to encourage and inspire them.
