Modus church operations consultant Ezekiel Taylor standing in a traditional sanctuary

Ezekiel Taylor · BTh, MDiv · Principal Consultant

Rooted.
Modern.

Trustworthy.

My perspective wasn’t formed in a boardroom. It was formed in the pews and pulpits of the Baptist church — the heritage that built the church I’m now called to strengthen.

The Origin Story

I don’t
business up the

Church

I grew up in these halls. I understand the weight of a board meeting where tradition and progress are at war across the same table. I know what it feels like to love your congregation so much that you’re afraid to change the systems that are limiting them.

I’ve spent years at the intersection of theology and technology — serving churches navigating their most complex growth phase. The moment when the small church model stops working. When excellence becomes expected. When you’re hiring staff for the first time and have no framework for who to look for or what the role actually requires.

In 2020, I watched a faithful congregation realize they had no way to reach their own members. Their database was a decades-old Excel sheet. When the system broke, the connection between the shepherd and the flock broke with it. I led that church through a complete structural overhaul — and MODUS128 was built on everything I learned from that moment.

Today I work exclusively with the emerging church — 300 members and beyond, navigating the organizational growth phase that most consultants completely overlook. Too large for small church resources. Not large enough to have the infrastructure of a big church. Right in the middle of the most dangerous and most defining season of their organizational life.

That’s my church. That’s your church.

“Frankly, I view him as a technical genius… I predict that in future years many congregations will look back to the work and ministry of Ezekiel Taylor as pivotal in their success.”

The Foundation

Genesis
1:28

is the method.

Be fruitful. Multiply. Fill the earth. That was God’s first commission — and it still belongs to the church.
MODUS128 exists to help traditional congregations answer that calling with the right systems,
the right strategy, and the right support.

How We Work

The modus
Approach

01.

Observe

We don’t begin with a hammer. We begin with an architectural review — listening to your staff, your board, and your vision before recommending anything.

 

02.

DIAGNOSE

The Modus Audit surfaces every stress fracture in your church’s foundation. You get a Blueprint that tells you exactly where you are and how to move forward.

 

03.

BUILD

The Modus Audit surfaces every stress fracture across your four core systems and delivers a Blueprint — a prioritized action plan that tells you exactly what to fix, in what order, and why. It’s where every MODUS128 engagement begins.

04.

Work

The Steward is MODUS128’s embedded advisory engagement. I become your church’s trusted advisor — present for the decisions, available for the calls, fully invested in building what the Blueprint revealed. This is not a project. It’s a presence.

Two churches at a time. Three to twelve months. Weekly sessions, direct access, and someone in your corner every time a decision needs to be made.
