With its roots in Gaithersburg, Maryland, Sovereign Grace Church was originally known as People of Destiny International. Since that time in 1982, the ministry boasts more than 70 Sovereign Grace churches with partnerships in 21 countries. Sovereign Grace Ministries promotes growth for all communities by providing neighborhoods with a safe places to preach and to praise. Sovereign Grace Ministries facilitates collaborations amongst pastors worldwide with an emphasis on church planting, and offers music, books, and various other products to the public with their online shop. The ministry's mission mentions a goal of spreading the word of Jesus Christ the right way, 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 area. In order to develop and foster a effective church, every pastor has to participate in a training program to ensure that the church will prosper 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 reviewed by the elders within the church. When the application passes the preliminary approval phase, 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 various special events geared at Christian worshipers. One of the most important is the WorshipGod conference that is held biannually. Individuals go over the theology, practice, and joy of God-honoring worship 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 faithfulness, with a specific message for the praise team of a church. Due to the fact that a worship team works week in and week out, frequently without the thanks of a congregation, the conference is designed to urge and inspire them. Newer Sovereign Grace Ministries pastors are invited to the annual Pastors' Conference where they could better comprehend the ministry's goal and values. These occasions are tailored toward getting the word out about church planting. By holding these festivals and conferences in different cities each year, brand-new pastors in the location might become interested in applying for the program to produce and plant a church in an area that needs one. The ministry doesn't stop there. They additionally have a store that individuals can purchase anything from songs to reading products and other church resources.

The reading product is best for individual reading, or can be talked about with youth and adult church groups.
