Should I Plant a Church?
Ben Connelly & Todd Engstrom
The Equipping Group’s February Online Workshop
Why would I want to plant a church?
Am I “called” to take such a big step?
How do I know if I have the right gifting?
There are many reasons to plant a church – some good and healthy; others less so. And there is no single personality type or gift mix that makes someone a planter or not. So… how do you know if it’s for you or not?
About the Workshop
Seasoned church planting practitioners and advisors Ben Connelly and Todd Engstrom will cut through dangerous but common motives for church planting, and look at God’s mission as the best motive for planting a church. They will help you consider your gifting and potential role on a team. Then offer some vital elements that are proven to be helpful in discerning whether you’re called to plant a church – and if so, how you might do so based on your specific convictions, leadership giftings, and mission field.
