COVENANT. COVERING. COLLABORATION.
The International Apostolic Movement (IAM) is a global network of senior leaders, aspiring church planters, interdependent ministries, episcopates, businesses, entepreneurs, apostolic leaders and presiders united by a shared commitment to advancing the Kingdom of God. With representation across the United States, Africa, the Caribbean, Europe and Asia, IAM exists to equip, align and empower leaders to build according to heaven’s pattern and steward God’s purpose in their generation.

Frequently Asked Questions
IAM is a covenant family of senior pastors and five-fold leaders committed to the presence of God above all else. We exist to equip pastors and churches to steward the awe of God and lead presence-driven movements. This is not a network, denomination, or membership organization. This is covenant relationship. We do not build platforms. We build altars.
IAM is for senior pastors and five-fold leaders who have been in their role for at least one year and are hungry for the presence of God above all else. If you refuse to trade purity for platform, if you value family over fame, and if you want to walk with leaders who burn with the same fire, ASCEND may be for you. We also welcome church planters on a case-by-case basis and international leaders from any nation.
IAM offers two ways to walk in covenant with us:
- Apostolic Covering is a governmental relationship. You are placing yourself under apostolic authority, receiving direct counsel on major decisions and accountability that carries weight. For those called to apostolic or prophetic function, covering provides a pathway to commissioning.
- Apostolic Alignment is a relational partnership. You walk in covenant family with peer accountability and shared resources, without formal governmental authority over your ministry.
- Both are honored. Both receive the same community benefits. The difference is the nature of the relationship. If you are unsure which is right for you, we will discuss it on your discovery call.
