4 Reasons I Built Teaching Funnel- Behind the Scenes of a Kingdom-Driven Shift in Education
Teaching Funnel
In 2020 when the world shut down jobs went down with it. But here's what arose:
Opportunities.
Opportunities to create courses… even if they overpromised and underdelivered.
Opportunities to create programs… packed with info but empty of insight.
Opportunities to be an expert —yet few knew how to structure their genius in a way that landed.
Bills still needed to be paid, right?
And people still needed to eat.
Many people consumed everything everywhere. Some may have done it in faith.
But the majority of us did it out of fear.
Fear of the future and the unknown.
Which brings us to where we are now. In the online space there’s hesitation.
Because people have been burned and they're still recovering from their wounds.
Maybe you've been on the receiving end of that disappointment.
Or maybe you’ve pulled back from sharing your own gifts, afraid of causing more noise or confusion.
And that bugs me 😕.
Because no matter the time period we're in. No matter how much we ‘advance’ in technology there are certain basic, foundational truths that never change.
One of those unchanging truths is the way that people learn, grow and develop.
Hence, Teaching Funnel™ was born. I'll show you why I created this structure and how it helps Christian educators, course and membership creators as they share their expertise.
1. To rebuild trust in a time when online credibility is at an all-time low
Picture of trust
As I started by saying, trust was broken in a huge way. By charlatans and get rich quick schemes that capitalised on fear and anxiety during the pandemic.
So instead of battling money recessions. Now there's a trust recession.
Skepticism is high and people are guarding not just their pockets. But also their hearts
Teaching Funnel can help with that.
The reason why get rich quick schemes work well is because they are vague and hit certain emotions.
They give you just enough to grab attention, poke your pain points and promise you what you secretly desire.
But Teaching Funnel is built on clarity and confidence. It keeps your clients or students top of mind.
When people see that you have their best interests at heart and want to help them move forward, you empower them to reach their own success.
❌ No gimmicks.
❌ No schemes.
❌ No plots.
Teaching Funnel gives you the support you need to empower your people. And that's an excellent way to build back that much needed trust that's been missing for so long.
That was the catalyst—but what truly solidified my direction was this need👇🏾.
2. To help leaders confidently teach the Gospel by first mastering their God-given subject area
Teaching your genius
I have a dear friend who I laugh with all the time about certain words we don't like hearing about in church.
Here's one:
Justification.
Don't get me wrong. It's super important. But what does it even mean 🤷🏾♀️?
I bet you that if you asked 100 regular church attendees the majority wouldn't have a clue.
Do you know?
If you don't, that's because we haven't been taught how to share the gospel in a simple way.
That's what Jesus did.
When He taught crowds of people He made analogies to things they already understood to make complex topics click. So they got it.
He told relatable stories.
How could the disciples carry on the work of building God's kingdom if they didn't understand kingdom business?
Jesus used the concept of fishing to show Peter the fisherman, how he would be catching men for the kingdom.
How can you teach the simple Gospel that hasn't been taught and discipled in churches if you can't even explain the genius and expertise you have inside you?
Teaching Funnel shows you how to structure your genius so your message lands.
So while you're learning how to empower your people and provide real transformation, you're also learning how to share the simple Gospel of Jesus Christ.
So you won't be spouting ‘Christianese’ and using big terms that people don't understand.
Like justification and sanctification 🙈.
You'll be teaching in simple, impactful ways that make messages stick. We need more of this in the kingdom. And that's what Teaching Funnel helps you to do.
Here’s what else sparked the birth of this framework.
3. To provide a framework that honours both educational psychology and spiritual calling
What an idea!
I used to cringe when I read about ‘proven frameworks’.
My first thought was… 🙄. Everybody… and their grandmother… has a proven framework.
Then it hit me…I have a proven framework 😱.
It's proven because it works and it can be replicated over and over again.
Like going on a journey. If you follow the roadmap it has the same turns and checkpoints.
But different people will bring their different personalities and interests on the journey. Which is like having different vehicles along that road:
A blue truck.
A green car.
An orange bike.
They all look different but they’re all vehicles. And they will still get you to your destination.
If you follow the roadmap that's given.
Teaching Funnel is the journey to clarity and transformation for educators, course and membership creators.
It doesn't compromise and trade in truth for trends. I've packaged my 18+ years of teaching experience and condensed it to a simple, effective roadmap backed by science. Yet it leaves room for the leading of Holy Spirit.
(More on this in the last point).
It's about authority and anointing.
And in the world we live in? We need both to succeed.
Once that truth settled in, another one started to unfold…
4. To equip leaders who don’t just want to speak well—but want to teach for transformation
Teaching Funnel Pin
Moses did not think he could speak at all and wanted to get out of his assignment to go before Pharaoh.
But God showed him what to say and demonstrated His power in a mighty way.
It wasn't about speaking well. It was about being intentional with what he said to make an impact.
Here’s my story:
I was once invited to preach at a church's Anniversary service.
The Lord told me what to share and how to share it. I thought it was so odd.
I had props, Q&A segments and other engaging activities.
I told a Pastor I knew about my preaching assignment.
He asked to read my notes to see what I had planned.
I figured... He has experience. Why not?
My headache started at that point. 😔
He said the material was good. But to remember I was preaching and not teaching.
Don't make it like school.
My headache got worse. 😩
❌ I started to doubt what God said.
❌ Considered starting from scratch.
❌ Wondered if I was good enough for the job.
Sound familiar?
I battled with it and felt God leading me to keep what I had.
Finally, the day arrived.
I walked in to find...
Half the congregation was filled with kids.
Doesn't God have a sense of humour 😄?
The church had invited schools in the neighborhood to come.
And the message was tailored for them before I even knew they were coming.
💙 They paid attention.
💚 Answered my questions.
💙 Took part with excitement.
So when the call to give your life to The Lord was given…both adults and children stepped forward.
Because I didn't walk in with ‘good material’.
I structured God's Word in a way that clicked and led to real transformation.
It's not enough to have ‘good material’. It's about how you structure it to help bring transformation to your audience.
No matter the audience.
I help you do this with my Teaching Funnel.
There is so much content out there. But so much of it sounds the same. Or it's not structured for learning and transformation.
That's because people have been watching what others do and ‘trying a thing’, as we say at home.
For an educator, course or membership creator, you don't want to try a thing.
You understand that learning and transformation are key. And you want to know how to provide the support to make it happen for your audience.
