By planting churches, we have the privilege of being part of God’s sovereign work in the world. God’s redemptive plan has always involved having a people for himself. Our cities desperately need theologically sound, missionally effective, multiplying churches planted. For this to happen, we must develop faithful and effective church planters. The better equipped planters we send out, the more missionally impactful churches we’ll plant.
Dr. Tony Merida explores nine essentials for church planters to be faithful and effective in engaging their cities with the gospel, making disciples of Jesus Christ, and planting gospel-centered churches. Whether you’re an aspiring planter, a sending church, a seasoned pastor, a member of a planting team, or someone leveraging your time, talents, and treasures for the kingdom of God, this book will inform and inspire as you grow in your affections for Christ and in your effectiveness in ministry.
