Expand the kingdom of God by initiating Church Planting Movements.
Overview
All around the world the church is growing through small, fast-multiplying churches. These CPM’s are often initiated by a team of missionaries and carried on by local leaders. Many of these CPM’s are happening among unreached people groups or places where there are few believers.
Jesus commands us to take the gospel to all nations – ethne, or people groups. According to the Joshua Project, there are still over 6,000 unreached people groups left in the world.
During the course of the school we will be focusing on principles important to Church Planting, as well as, bringing in speakers that have personally worked as missionaries in closed nations.
Some general principles include:
- Principles of Church Planting Movements
- Cross-cultural Communication
- Focusing on the Unreached
- Counting the Cost
- Research
Added Curriculum
Some of the added material will include interviewing missionaries that have worked among unreached people groups, interviewing other church planting teams, and extra reading material focused on CPM’s and missionaries that worked in CPM situations. Internships with missionaries working in the field following the school may also be possible.
