NewSpring Church

What NewSpring Church does

NewSpring Church is a Southern Baptist megachurch headquartered at 12200 East 21st St N, Wichita, Kansas, operating continuously under Lead Pastor Mark Hoover since 1985. It delivers weekend worship services (Saturday at 3 and 4:45 p.m., Sunday at 9:15 and 11:15 a.m.), monthly First Wednesday communion services, and an extensive ministry ecosystem organized by life stage: KidzWorld for birth through 5th grade, The Wire for middle school, Thrive for high school, and Collide for college-age young adults, alongside support-oriented programs (DivorceCare, Through This Valley grief support, Married Life Ministry) and faith-exploration products (NEXT eight-week groups, Book By Book monthly Bible study, Noah's Window daily devotional series). Its audience is the Wichita metro and surrounding Kansas communities, with broadcast extension into the Kansas City and Topeka markets.

The technical stack is built almost entirely on third-party platforms: Monk Platform powers content delivery and the mobile application infrastructure; Pushpay handles secure online and recurring giving; Church Center manages event registration, prayer requests, and forms. Distribution spans a physical Wichita campus, a 60-minute weekly TV broadcast on eight local stations across Wichita, Kansas City, and Topeka markets, FM radio on 107.9 and 105.9, online streaming at newspringonline.org, and dedicated apps on iOS, Android, Apple TV, and Roku. Marketing reach extends through Facebook, Instagram, X, multiple YouTube channels segmented by demographic cohort, and a weekly Friday email digest.

The business model is donor-supported and nonprofit. Primary revenue comes from voluntary tithes and offerings, collected in person, online, and via the mobile app through Pushpay. Secondary revenue streams include modest program fees (DivorceCare $25 registration, Through This Valley with a small childcare fee) and curriculum sales (NEXT Study Guide at $12). Pricing for core worship services and most ministries is free; there is no advertising, no investor capitalization, no parent company, and no public revenue disclosure. The customer base is a distributed individual-member donor pool with no enterprise customer concentration and no listed major funding events.
