What Dynamic Church Planting International does
Mission
Equipping leaders to plant dynamic churches worldwide.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Dcpi's vision is equipping leaders to plant five million dynamic churches to reach the world for christ. The key to seeing the five million church vision become reality is through the indigenous leaders we collaborate with in nations around the world. They are our certified trainers and master trainers. A certified trainer (ct) is a leader who has attended dcpi's training and is selected to train others in one or more of our training tracks. Ct's share the vision and introduce dcpi's training to their network of leaders. They are empowered by dcpi to certify trainers for their nations. Working alongside local leaders ensures that our training materials are culturally relevant and easily understood. Ultimately, resulting in the transfer of vision.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $345k to $966k (+180%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 3% · 2021 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
98% of DYNAMIC CHURCH PLANTING INTERNATIONAL’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 4 funders to 8 funders, grant income fell $186k → $160k.
10 of 15 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 94% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of DYNAMIC CHURCH PLANTING INTERNATIONAL’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
DYNAMIC CHURCH PLANTING INTERNATIONAL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 50% of grant income and the top three 86%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
96% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund DYNAMIC CHURCH PLANTING INTERNATIONAL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 88% · 2018 98% · 2019 90% · 2020 42% · 2021 96% · 2022 63% · 2023 60% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
50% of DYNAMIC CHURCH PLANTING INTERNATIONAL's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 73% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
94% of DYNAMIC CHURCH PLANTING INTERNATIONAL's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $101k that is directly attributable, 75% of it comes from funders outside California, across 4 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.7M arriving through sponsors registered in 8 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
