Church on the Move

What Church on the Move does

Church on the Move is a multi-site non-profit Christian church operating three campuses — Tulsa (main), Broken Arrow, and West Tulsa — across the greater Tulsa, Oklahoma metropolitan area. The organization delivers weekend worship services alongside a broad ministry portfolio spanning children (Kids on the Move, K-5), youth (Oneighty, grades 6-12), young adults (COTMU), men's (Brotherhood) and women's (Daughters) ministries, marriage support (Reengage), global mission trips, prison ministry through God Behind Bars at two correctional facilities, and pastoral care services. The church is also affiliated with Lincoln Christian School, a K-12 educational subsidiary. Its stated mission centers on "introducing people to the real Jesus" through worship, discipleship, small groups, and community engagement.

The church's digital infrastructure is built around my.churchonthemove.com, a member portal that handles online giving, prayer requests, volunteer scheduling, communication preferences, and account management, complemented by Church Online live streaming, an archived YouTube sermon library, the Life In Motion and Spirit In Motion podcasts distributed on Apple and Spotify, and active Facebook and Instagram channels. The proprietary "Real Jesus" 10-week small-group curriculum and leadership-resources toolkits are used to standardize teaching and enable group multiplication across campuses.

Revenue is generated entirely through voluntary member contributions. The primary recurring stream is tithes and offerings from individual members, supplemented by the annual Compassion Offering campaign (target $750,000 for 2024; cumulative >$10 million since 2017) that funds external ministry partnerships and the periodic Missio Dei capital campaign for building and ministry expansion. There is no pricing model, no contractual revenue, and no enterprise customer base — economics depend on member generosity across a horizontally segmented congregation spanning all ages and life stages in the Tulsa metro area.
