Change Church

What Change Church does

Change Church (legal entity Kingdom Church) is a multi-campus evangelical Christian church headquartered in Duluth, Georgia, founded in 2012 and led by Lead Pastor Dharius Daniels. The organization operates four physical campuses — Gwinnett (Duluth, GA), DeKalb (Stone Mountain, GA), Ewing (NJ), and Westampton (NJ) — alongside a global online campus streaming services on Sundays at three time slots via YouTube and Online.Church. Its core offering is a structured spiritual formation ecosystem built around Change Track (a three-level discipleship program: 100, 200, 300), 12-week Change Groups, the Dream Team volunteer program, and age-segmented ministries spanning infants through seniors (Change Littlez, Change Kidz, Change YTH, Young Adults, ChangeHer women's ministry, MadeMen, and Primetime 65+). Adjacent programs include FUEL health and wellness, Good Grief bereavement groups, Marriage Bootcamp, Change Mart back-to-school drive, Hungry No More food insecurity outreach, and a prison ministry partnership with God Behind Bars at FCI Atlanta.

The church monetizes primarily through voluntary tithes, offerings, and donations collected via in-person services, the Overflow.co online giving portal, SMS text-to-give (470.745.7041), stock and cryptocurrency contributions, mail, and the affiliated Change Foundation philanthropic arm. A secondary tuition-based revenue stream is generated by Change College, an accredited leadership and ministry training program launched in August 2026 in partnership with Southeastern University, offering Associate through Master's degrees with published per-credit and per-semester pricing. The technology stack includes CCB Church for member management, KidCheck for children's safety, Constant Contact for campus-specific newsletters, TicketLocity for event registration, Paylocity for HR, and a custom AI chatbot called GoatedGPT built on the Pickaxe platform and trained in the voice of the lead pastor.

The customer base is diffuse individual congregants and families across two U.S. states and a global online audience, with no disclosed enterprise contracts or institutional donors. Go-to-market combines community-led engagement (small groups, volunteering, formation tracks), event-driven acquisition (FLOW Women's Conference, Unbreakable Couples Conference, Made Men Conference, Outpour, house parties), and direct-to-consumer digital channels (website, social media, email newsletters, AI chatbot).
