Session Descriptions:
Session 1 - Beyond the Call...Building a Launch Plan (Ron Sylvia and Todd Wilson)
God has called you and given you a dream. A call to plant a church. A dream to reach your community for Him. You are ready to go but have so many questions you don't know where to start! This foundational session will equip you to develop a plan consistent with the vision God has birthed through your calling.
Session 2 - Before Insanity...How to Plant a Church and Still Have a Life (Larry Osborne)
Success is not measured in the number of people who come to your church. It's measured by your devotion and commitment to God. Come hear how you can give your new church all it deserves by giving your first and best to God and your family.
Session 3 - Beyond Strategy... Building Indigenous Church (Ed Stetzer)
The church you birth needs to be birthed for the community in which you are planting. Come hear how you can plant an indigenous church that will thrive in your community
Session 4 - Beyond Outreach...Building Relationships one Act of Service at a Time (Efrem Smith)
To what end? Outreach and community service demonstrate God's love in practical ways and meet people where they are. Community service is a value for a growing number of people who are disconnected from God. This creates a unique opportunity for new churches. This two part session will equip you to discern how you can best serve people and then show you practical ways to do it.
Session 5 - Beyond Myself...Building a Launch Team (Darrin Patrick)
You can't do this on your own. You need a team. This sounds really easy but can prove to be more difficult than you think. To start a healthy church you need to develop a growing team of people to help transform your community. Come hear practical tips on moving from a church of one to a launch team of many.
