Bargain Basement Jesus Academy

A twelve-module journey into the cost — and the reward — of following Jesus.

The Bargain Basement Jesus Academy is the formation heart of the program. Built on Antione Anderson's book "Bargain Basement Jesus: The Cost of Following," it walks participants through the Gospel story of the first disciples — ordinary people with boats, nets, and doubts whom Jesus called into the deep. Its purpose is simple: help people count the cost of following Jesus, decide honestly, and learn to offer what little they have so He can do far more with it than they could.

Its intent is pastoral, not transactional. This is not a financial program with verses attached — it is a discipleship curriculum that treats money, work, ambition, and relationships as the everyday places where surrender, renewal, and obedience are either formed or avoided. Every module keeps the tone candid and hopeful: Jesus never asked anyone to pretend the bargain bin was full of treasure; He asked them to leave the pile and follow Him.

Twelve modules in four movements: Count and Commit (1–3), Be Reshaped (4–5), Offer What You Have and Go Deeper (6–9), and Bear Fruit and Walk Together (10–12).

Each module moves through the same seven stages — Read, Reflect, Assess, Commit, Practice, Connect, Record — so formation becomes a weekly rhythm rather than a one-time decision.

Along the way participants keep a private journal, make dated commitments, track practice progress (never spiritual worth), and finish with a 90-day plan reviewed with trusted supporters.

What the Academy shapes, the three Nsites applications carry: what begins as private formation becomes community life, church intelligence, and personal growth.

How the four applications connect

Formation that becomes stewardship, community, and personal empowerment.

Bargain Basement Jesus is the formation engine. Its twelve modules shape how people follow Jesus; the three Nsites applications give that formation somewhere practical to land — in the church's financial picture, in its community life, and in each person's own household.

Stewardship Nsites

Financial reporting and church intelligence

Gives leaders a clear, de-identified view of the church's financial health and generosity trends. As participants practice surrender, renewal, and offering what they have, leaders see the aggregate effect over time — never individual giving or rankings.

Stewardship Nsites Connect

Networking and community engagement

Turns private commitments into shared life. Participants choose which commitments, practices, or support requests to share; Connect links them to mentors, service teams, cohort events, and follow-up care.

Personal Nsites

Individual financial enhancement and empowerment

The private space where each person applies the course to their own life — budgeting and money beliefs, goals, the 90-day plan, journaling, and coaching they invite. Personal growth here feeds everything else, on the participant's terms.

Learn in the Academy → apply privately in Personal Nsites → share deliberately through Connect → leaders see de-identified patterns in Stewardship Nsites → coaching and the next module begin the loop again.

How the program works — one continuous loop

Begin with church and participant readiness, learn through Bargain Basement Jesus, connect formation to stewardship and community practice, act through coaching and a 90-day plan, then review de-identified evidence together. The applications remain distinct while supporting one continuous follow-through cycle.

Review

Private reflections stay private. Sharing is participant-controlled. Church reporting uses operational or de-identified measures and never ranks faith or spiritual worth.
