For years, churches and ministries have watched their insurance options shrink. Carriers that once served this space have pulled back or exited entirely. Leaving fewer choices, higher premiums, and less flexibility right when ministries need it most.
<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

The areas hit hardest are often the ones that matter most: property and liability coverage, counseling services, and protections around child and vulnerable adult safety. As claims and lawsuits in these areas have grown more common and more costly, many insurers have simply decided the risk isn’t worth it, leaving churches to either pay significantly more or go without adequate coverage.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

But the bigger problem isn’t just fewer options, it’s fewer people on the other side of the table who actually understand ministry. Most agents and carriers approach a church the same way they’d approach any small business, missing the realities of volunteer staff, mission trips, counseling ministries, and the trust a congregation places in its leaders.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Dominion First exists to close both gaps.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Dominion First was founded to give churches and ministries something they’d been missing: an insurance agency that actually understands ministry.
<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Our team combines deep insurance expertise with real experience inside churches and ministries. So we’re not just brokers reading a policy back to you, we’re advisors who understand how a ministry actually operates, where its risks really are, and what protection needs to look like in practice.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

That combination is what led to our partnership with the Texas Baptists and KingsCover Underwriting, giving us access to coverage built specifically for this space. Coverage our team then puts to work for every church and ministry we serve.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Built Differently, On Purpose<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Dominion First was built differently on purpose. By people who know ministry and know insurance, not one or the other.
<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

That means every client works with a team that speaks both languages: the language of coverage, claims, and carriers, and the language of congregations, ministries, and mission. It’s why churches trust us not just to write a policy, but to stand with them through every renewal, every claim, and every season of ministry life.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
