We are excited to announce the recent completion of our 1,000th ministry-based facility design! We are so blessed and thankful to have been able to work with more than 830 churches and 170 Christian schools and colleges across 47 U.S. states and 3 foreign countries since 1998.

We believe that everything from mission and vision to facilities and finances is part of the same strategic conversation. We look forward to beginning that conversation with you! Click on the image below to learn more about our church design services & network of strategic partners.
The BGW concept was born out of a calling to help ministries address the fundamental flaws in the design and construction process, in which poor stewardship and conflict are far too common.
We believe there is a better way; one focused on delivering the highest level of stewardship, God-honoring relationships and intentional ministry focus. Our exclusive approach has been proven through 1,000+ ministry projects nationwide since 1998.
There are many architectural firms that can provide creative design solutions. However, creative design alone can be problematic if it is simply an exercise to show fantastic possibilities that have little chance of getting funded. At BGW, we are invested in the buildings we design and want to see them built. Our mission is to not only translate your ministry vision through architecture, but to continually seek value and savings throughout the design process so that your project will move forward into construction.
I would without a doubt recommend BGW to any church or pastor that’s considering new construction. Just hear them and see the process that they engage in. They’re easy to work with, they’re down-to-earth, they’re Godly men and women involved in the process. I felt like we were working on a project with friends that we had just met.

Grand Parkway Baptist Church | Richmond, TX
BGW exceeded our expectations! I have been a pastor for over 40 years. It is the first time I have ever had a building working for us instead of against us. The facility BGW designed for us is creative, beautiful, practical and flexible. They were amazing to work with and very conscious to keep cost under control. They are on the cutting edge of how to do ministry in these unique days and how to design a facility to help you accomplish your vision.

Senior Pastor
Brookhaven Church | McKinney, TX
We’ve built two phases with BGW, ten years apart and both experiences were fantastic! Both came in at or below budget. Both finished within the estimated time (with one project taking place during a pandemic). We always felt like they were part of our team, working hard for our desires and needs. We couldn’t recommend them with any higher endorsement.

Senior Pastor
Calvary Community Church | Brea, CA
We were blown away with the creativity and all the extra things that BGW brings to the table, especially the idea of using our facility to pay for the upgrades as well as expose new people to the church. Our heads are still spinning with possibilities!
George Verkaik
Building Committee
Trinity EV Free Church | Eustis, FL
We initially worked with another architect who designed a building that was nearly two-times our budget. Fortunately, BGW came at just the right time. From our first design meeting, we knew we had chosen the right team to complete our project.

Senior Pastor
Southland Community Church | Greenwood, IN
We are so glad that we’re using BGW. They have such a good command and understanding of church design and construction strategies and the ability to articulate what they are thinking.
Tom Cain
Allisonville Christian Church – Indianapolis, IN
This was the third time I’ve been involved in building a church facility and what I learned through all of that and what became really clear with BGW is, working with an architect that understands churches makes the process so much easier. We didn’t have to spend much time explaining to BGW how we do church like we would a lot of other architects. They quickly caught on to who we were and they understand how churches work in our culture today.
Jeff Swearingen
Lead Pastor
Crosspoint Church | Cape Coral, FL
BGW designed spaces that matched who we were as a school and a community. They’ve been working with Christian schools for so long that they really understand the needs and the value proposition we’re trying to offer our families. Our new facility speaks so strongly to the quality and excellence of our education and it’s allowing us to get new people in the door and talk to them about our vision.
