Mentoring Church Planters into a Church-Planting Movement
Is it possible to see church planting movements in Europe? In 2006 a process of training and mentoring young church planters began in Germany, and it is spreading – even to other countries. In the last 5 years newly planted churches have already multiplied into the second generation of churches. The hope for Europe is not adding one new church at a time but to see church-planting movements happening. In this seminar we will learn how a growing team of mentors, with a certain DNA of church planting, is following the Holy Spirit’s creation of an inside-out grassroots movement. It is possible!
