Creating Your Account

There are two ways to get started with Apostolic Path: registering a new church or being invited to an existing church.

Registering a New Church

If you're a pastor or church leader setting up your church for the first time:

1. Go to the Apostolic Path website and click Get Started or Sign Up
2. Enter your church name — this is how your church will appear throughout the platform
3. Provide your email address and create a password
4. Choose a subscription plan (you can start with the free Plant plan)
5. If you select a paid plan, you'll be guided through Stripe checkout to set up billing
6. Check your email for a verification code and enter it on the verification screen

Once verified, you'll be taken through the onboarding wizard to configure your church.
