Church Plant Initiative Team

Continually beginning new churches is the best way to advance the Kingdom of God and restrain the tide of sin and suffering. Therefore, we take risks for the kingdom and explore various ways of beginning new churches. Even though planting new churches is unpredictable, we do so with reliance on God’s leading and timing.

Our Church Plant Initiatives Team (CPIT) helps explore why, where, and how we can plant new churches. We have produced this paper to help explain the strategic importance of church planting.
