Heaven’s Gate Academy Join WPA ’26
Workplace Altar ’26

Your work is not separate from your worship.

Workplace Altar is a 12-week formation experience for believers who desire to understand their vocation as priesthood — and build businesses, careers, skills, and institutions that serve the purposes of God in the world.

The Workplace Is Also an Altar

God does not only call people to pray, preach, or serve within the walls of a church.

He also calls people to build, teach, heal, design, create, organise, govern, cultivate, and solve problems.

i.

A doctor can extend healing.

ii.

A teacher can confront ignorance.

iii.

A lawyer can uphold justice.

iv.

An artist can shape imagination.

v.

A business can organise people and resources around a genuine human need.

Your vocation is one of the ways you serve creation and reveal the nature of God within your sphere.

Workplace Altar will help you understand what God has placed in your hands, develop it with excellence, and build in a way that reflects His values.

What You Will Learn

Four movements of formation

Over twelve weeks, WPA ’26 walks through calling, craft, conviction, and consequence.

01

Understand Your Vocation

Gain greater clarity about your calling, the burden connected to your work, and the people or problems you have been equipped to serve.

02

Develop the Work in Your Hands

Learn how to cultivate your skill, strengthen your offering, overcome distraction, and build the capacity required for growth and increase.

03

Build With Purpose and Integrity

Develop a healthy understanding of purpose, profit, service, leadership, influence, and ethical stewardship.

04

Create Meaningful, Lasting Impact

Learn how to build cultures, relationships, systems, and organisations that carry the values of God and continue serving people beyond you.

More Than a Business Course

This is not simply about making more money.

Growth without purpose can multiply disorder.

Influence without character can become destructive.

Profit without stewardship can consume the very people it was meant to serve.

Workplace Altar is about becoming a faithful steward of your work. It will challenge you to examine not only what you are building, but why you are building it, who it serves, and what kind of culture it creates.

WPA ’26 brings together biblical formation, vocational clarity, practical wisdom, ethical reflection, and the discipline required to build work that is both excellent and meaningful.

Who WPA ’26 Is For

You do not need to have everything figured out. You only need to be willing to take seriously what God has placed in your hands.

By the End of the Programme

Formation, not just information

You may arrive with

  • uncertainty about your calling
  • scattered effort
  • an undeveloped skill
  • a business without clear purpose
  • a burden you cannot yet express

You should leave with

  • greater vocational clarity
  • a stronger philosophy of work
  • a healthier understanding of profit
  • deeper commitment to mastery
  • a clearer vision for influence and legacy

The goal is not simply to help you become more successful — it is to help you become a faithful steward of the skill, opportunity, resources, people, and influence entrusted to you.

Certificate & Graduation

Completed, not merely attended

Workplace Altar is a formation journey with a finish line. Students are expected to attend the classes, complete every assignment, and submit a final project.

Those who finish receive a certificate of completion and are commissioned at a graduation ceremony — a tradition the Academy has now held twice, celebrating hundreds of graduates.

Our Contribution Model

Learning Should Be Accessible

At Heaven’s Gate Academy, we never want a student’s present financial capacity to become a barrier to learning. For this reason, Workplace Altar does not operate with one fixed tuition fee. Instead, we use an open contribution model that allows each student to give according to their present capacity.

This does not mean that the programme is free. Your contribution helps sustain the programme and confirms your commitment to participating in the course. Those with greater capacity are encouraged to give generously, helping us continue to make learning accessible to others.

Every student is invited to contribute according to their present capacity.

A contribution is required to confirm enrolment

Frequently Asked Questions

Before you ask

Do I need to own a business to join? +

No. Workplace Altar is for entrepreneurs, professionals, creatives, skilled practitioners, organisational leaders, and anyone seeking greater clarity about their vocation. You may be running an established organisation, developing a career, learning a skill, nurturing an idea, or still discerning the work God has placed in your hands.

Is Workplace Altar only for people in full-time ministry? +

No. The programme is built around the conviction that believers can serve God through every legitimate sphere of work. Your workplace, profession, craft, or business can become a place of worship, service, stewardship, and influence.

Is this strictly a business course? +

No. Workplace Altar includes principles that are relevant to business, but it is broader than conventional business development. The programme explores calling, work, skill, purpose, profit, excellence, influence, ethics, culture, leadership, and legacy.

How much does the course cost? +

Workplace Altar operates an open contribution model, so there is no single fixed tuition fee. Every student is invited to contribute according to their present financial capacity; however, a financial contribution is required to confirm enrolment.

If you cannot afford a large contribution, you may still join — we do not want finances to prevent a sincere student from learning. You are encouraged to give honestly and responsibly according to what you can presently afford.

Is the programme free? +

No. Every student is expected to make a contribution. The open model simply means that all students are not required to contribute the same amount.

We believe learning should remain accessible, but we also believe students should participate with commitment and responsibility. Your contribution supports the delivery of the programme and confirms your decision to take part in the course.

How long is the programme? +

Workplace Altar runs for 12 weeks.

Will there be assignments? +

Yes. Students will receive reflective and practical exercises designed to help them apply the teachings to their own work, career, skill, or business.

Will the classes be recorded? +

Yes. Workplace Altar ’26 is a fully virtual programme. Classes hold live on Zoom on Saturdays from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM (WAT), and every session is recorded, so students in any time zone can participate fully.

What is required to complete the programme? +

Students are expected to attend the classes, complete all assignments, and submit a final project. Upon completion, students receive a certificate and are commissioned at a graduation ceremony.

How will I know my enrolment has been confirmed? +

Your enrolment will be confirmed after your registration and contribution have been received. Further information about the programme, class access, and participation will then be sent to you.
