This week, we have a special podcast, with George Bullard, highlighting the exciting church planting movement that’s taking place here in Columbia, SC.

 

Highlights

 

When we had 50 members meeting for corporate worship, we were ready to start another church out of that.

 

There is an idea that a church has to be successful before it can plant a church.  But the truth is that your church needs to be significant in God’s kingdom and have to be willing to surrender to God’s leadership to plant a church.

 

If you want to grow spiritually, start a new church.  You’ll fully understand Act 2 - that everyone has a job to do within the church.

 

First-time guests are worth their weight in gold and you treat those guests like pearls of great value

 

A successful church plant requires a core group of people with a Christ-centered faith.

 

Starting churches isn’t an arithmetic situation, it’s a geometric one.

 

Instead of a church using money to build that new building, they decide to use that money to build the first unit building for a new church.
