CHURCHES PLANTING CHURCHES
The most effective model for church planting is the sponsorship model. This model includes a "mother" church or a cluster of sponsor churches that take the lead in assisting a new church into existence. Nothing brings revival and refreshment to an existing church like multiplying its ministry through the establishment of a new church.
The benefits of a church planting a church are many.
- Expansion of ministry opportunities and influence.
- Maintains a fresh atmosphere within the ministry of a church.
- Broadens the vision of a local church beyond its immediate area.
- Creates new opportunities for ministry among newer attenders.
- Builds excitement and creates revival within the spirit of the church.
- God blesses mission-minded churches.
