Evangelism & Home MissionsChurch PlantingOne of the most fruitful methods of growing the church is planting new churches. Peter Wagner states in Church Planting for a Greater Harvest, "The single most effective evangelistic methodology under heaven is planting new churches." Church planting works in all cultures and in all areas. The Church of God believes in church planting. It is imperative that every church becomes conscious of its role in the church planting process. To help local churches explore their involvement in church planting. Evangelism & Home Missions sponsors Church Planting Day each November. The Department is prepared to assist pastors and new church planters with a church planting resource center at the International Offices offering the very latest methods and techniques in church planting. A one-day Church Planting Clinic is available to state leaders, district overseers, potential planters and local churches to assist pastors and lay people in catching a vision for church planting. |
