Church Planting Essentials
This foundational DCPI training teaches trainees how to plant a church. Using the pattern of a baby being formed in 9 months of pregnancy, students learn how to start churches from conception to birth and beyond. They plan culturally relevant outreach, develop a Process of Discipleship and learn about how to avoid difficulties in planting.
During Church Planting Essentials training each participant is required to prepare Vision-Plan-Timeline (VPT). The VPT is designed to help you begin applying what you are learning in the training and to move you further along in the vision and planting of new churches.
Available in 44 languages. Also available in Orality storytelling format for oral cultures.
This training equips you to:
- Organize, refine and pinpoint your vision, purpose, strategies and timeline early, so that you have a clear plan for the future.
- Use the 12 Biblical principles for church planting in everything you do.
- Recognize and avoid land mines such as launching too soon, choosing the wrong facility, or exhausting your launch team.
