At TLG, we’re on a bold, pioneering journey toward 2030 - reshaping how we think, plan and operate so we can deliver our vision with agility and impact. Rooted in our conviction of “Fulness of life for every child, no matter what struggles they face,” and our mission to pioneer unique and relevant approaches for churches everywhere, we see technology as the accelerator that will turn vision into reality. ​​

This is an exciting time to join the team.
