You Feel Led to Plant a Church: Great! But First, These 5 Steps

September 3, 2014 by Ron Edmondson Articles

4. Find others who are interested.

This is critical. If you tell me you can’t find anyone … and I hear it often … I’d seriously question how successful you are going to be. Just as with Elijah in 1 Kings 19, in my experience, God is always “reserving” (1 Kings 19:18) people whom He plans to use in the vision He is shaping in you. To build a body, you need those who are part of the body to start.

5. Find experienced help.

It can be a denomination, another church, or an experienced pastor or mentor, but don’t do it alone. Let me say that a little clearer. DON’T DO IT ALONE. Too much has been learned about church planting to miss out on someone else’s experience.
