05 · Becoming a Partner Church

Parent a church plant.

We encourage every church to get involved with church planting. One of the best ways to do this is to parent a church plant. Church planting is a risky business, but experience shows that when a qualified Church Planter is fitted with a supportive church as the parent, the likelihood of success is greatly enhanced. We invite you into partnership because we believe that it's biblical, historical, and strategic to do so. We wholeheartedly embrace the importance of kingdom partnerships.
