Recentering the Goal of Pastoral Ministry to Cultivate Christ-Treasuring Church Plants As churches rapidly expand, Christians risk viewing the church with an entrepreneurial mindset. Church planters can be tempted to fixate on gaining numbers and achieving financial stability as their only metrics for success. They fail to focus on lifting up Christ's people within the church. In Planting by Pastoring, author Nathan Knight challenges our view of church planting and centers the goal of pastoral ministry on a basic biblical foundation: a church plant is in fact a church, and a planter is in fact a pastor. A healthy church plant is not measured by size, speed, or level of self-sufficiency but by good pastoring that produces faith, fruit, and a flourishing community. Once pastors and church leaders redefine their plant as a church, their ministry will begin to align with Jesus's mission to shepherd the flock and bring glory to God alone. Provides Wisdom: This book reminds church planters of the heart of the church and the core purpose of pastors Offers a Unique Perspective: Addresses foundational elements of church planting other books fail to address Appeals to Pastors, Elders, and Church Planters: Great for those in the process of planting a church

Within these pages are the notes and lectures I gave as a teacher of church planting. I have had experience in church planting in three different levels: As the member of a brand new church plantAs the pastor being sent out of his church to plant a new churchAs the pastor of the sending church of a man pastoring a new church plantI've seen this work from many different viewpoints, have sat in on multiple hours of sermons, lessons and messages on church planting and I have served as the sending pastor of church planters with many different talents, temperaments and tools with which to start. I cannot say that we have been successful in every church plant. Nor can I say that I have anywhere near all the answers. I likely have only a few helpful hints for the church planter and his sending church. Prayerfully these pages might provide some sort of reference from which the work may progress

Church planting has become a cottage industry. National conferences, hip planting organizations, and all-in-one resource kits celebrate the thrill of pioneering a church and inspire visions of glorious victories. Yet few who respond to the call are warned what they'll actually encounter: the relentless opposition they'll endure; the eventual scattering of their entire core group; the failure of their tried-and-true, field-tested system. Here's the dirty little secret of church planting: the roadside is strewn with casualties. Many have closed their churches. Some left ministry permanently. Others abandoned the faith altogether. Church planting is at once the greatest and most grueling ministry work on earth. This book is for those toiling in the trenches, those about to bail out, and those considering jumping in. It's for the church planters laboring and struggling, seeing little movement, and wondering what they're doing wrong or why God is failing them. It's also for mother churches, planting organizations, and denominations, as a challenge to rethink and re-calibrate the way they approach and measure planting endeavors. The Honest Guide to Church Planting is a fresh and candid conversation about the challenges and joys of planting new churches. Tom Bennardo speaks the truth so that those involved in church planting can embrace a more accurate and realistic picture of what planting a church is really like; one that not only enables them to survive, but to thrive in this wondrous work.

Christianity Today Book Award What does it take to be a church planter or other ministry entrepreneur? Most leaders start out with passion, a sense of calling, and a focus on building ministry skills. Such things might get some results, but they are not enough to sustain a healthy ministry—or a healthy life. Beyond the vocational capacities every church planter needs, there's a range of capabilities more difficult to measure but even more essential: what veteran church planter Tim Morey calls spiritual competencies. Morey provides here a practical guide to spiritual formation geared to the unique needs of church planters. He helps readers answer the questions, What are the spiritual capabilities that I as a church planter need to develop? How might I lean into the work Jesus is doing in these vital areas? Spiritual competencies have to do not just with behaviors but also with the motivations, agendas, and scripts that drive behaviors. Morey explores how church planters can become people who invest in their own physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual health accept limits and share responsibilities can be trusted with power are able to stay resilient and grow through difficulties can minister without being noticed find a sustainable pace that helps them avoid burnout The health of a church or any ministry organization is directly linked to the health of its leaders. Church planters may be used to improvising, but when it comes to their spiritual lives, they can't afford to just wing it. Featuring real-life stories from leaders, suggested practices, and discussion questions in each chapter, this book will equip individuals and teams (and those who coach them) to commit to an intentional plan for spiritual formation—for the good of their churches, their relationships, and their own lives as disciples of Jesus.

The last several months have forced most churches to either close, or to make at least a decade's worth of changes, or maybe both. Whether it was building an online ministry, cleaning the calendar of all but "essential" stuff, rethinking ministry priorities, or maybe even relearning everything that you thought you knew about "the work of the ministry." Now, seven-to-eight(ish) months in, we are at a point where it would serve us well to take a deep breath, look at what we've been through, and maybe even draw a little map to guide us on down the road ahead.While the Bible's truths and the Great Commission do not change, the methods we have used, many of them, may have to change. That makes this a good time to ask ourselves whether our current ministry structures are serving us well? Or do they need to be refocused? What are "ministry structures"? Great question. This book attempts to answer it. The author, a Bible College and Seminary President who had arrived in his new Pastorate in a University town in New England just one week before the Governor declared a state of emergency and shut everything down was simply overwhelmed that the culture of a church, and of "Christianity" as he had known it for decades of both life and ministry could change so dramatically - and so quickly.Immediately, he uploaded a YouTube video for the church's members. His message was simple. The culture, both of the world around us, and even of many churches had changed. But the Bible was still the Word of God! Jesus was still the way, the truth, and the life! The mission of the First Baptist Church, and also the mission of the church's members, was to preach the Gospel and to make Disciples. These eternal truths were not changing!How they were going to be go about doing the work of the ministry, both collectively and individually, was going to change in ways they could not yet even begin to fathom. But ETERNAL truth and God's expectations and commands had not changed. Interestingly, the author notes that "As Pastor, I never had to fight the civil authorities. I did have to fight my own Deacons, Church Council, and 'leadership' every step of the way."This book is a combination of what the author and the church he pastors did and how they did it. Both during the initial stages of the lockdowns, and then after things had opened back up. Included are creative ideas of how to reached those who would not or could not come. Discussions include streaming worship services, wearing masks, social distancing, online giving, creative forms of outreach, and even planting a church amidst a pandemic. Also discussed are the effects that masks, social distancing, and CDC protocols have had on the authors church as well as their effects upon numerous other churches. What happened in churches that implemented strict protocols? And what happened in churches that had little or no protocols?The author also shares what he believe our churches should look like right now, and what we should be doing in the near future (as we go through re-institutions of lockdowns and recoveries). Finally, he predicts, based on 32-years of full-time pastoral ministry experience, what the "ministry" will look like 2 to 10 years from now. The author's prayer, is that as you read this book, the Holy Spirit will show you a strategy that will help the church you lead to move forward in the challenging days that are ahead. Our Lord is preparing His churches. Remember what our Lord said in Matthew 16:18, "I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." Every challenge and opposition that the Lord's churches have faced over the past 2,000 years has been met with God's power. The Lord's churches will prevail!

The first comprehensive textbook on effective church planting from a veteran church planter. The Apostle Paul was a veteran church planter who "laid a foundation like a wise and master builder" and there is much we can learn from his example. Paul indicated that there were basic skills and experiences required to successfully plant a church. Church Plantology examines the wide variety of church planting methods and ideologies in contemporary pastoral practice and outlines a biblical model based on the New Testament. During his time in prison, Paul spent much of his time writing to Titus, Timothy, and others who'd served alongside him in the trenches to complete their training as church plantings. We can continue to apply these time-tested, proven methods, following the pioneering example of the early church. Today, the casualty rate in is high. What if we could reduce the odds of failing? Church Plantology by Peyton Jones is a robust guide to planting that will help planters to provide the foundation necessary to survive beyond the initial first years so that they don't end up a walking statistic.
