Unto Him Be Glory Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus...
Tim and Sherman have been bringing a fresh, biblical approach to church planting for leaders in S. America, India, and SE Asia for 12 years.
In 2009, an online learning community started offering the same material via internet course modules. The next step in 2010 is face to face workshops here in the US.
We invite you to join us near Raleigh, NC on Mar 1-5 for a week long, immersive workshop covering the entire church planting manual, "God's Plan for Church Planting."
Sincerely, Art Mealer Church Task Force

Online Learning Community Instructor Facilitated Research & Discussion
We've had three groups and one church use the online learning community in 2009. Courses run from 9 to 17 weeks, and involve bible reading assignments, observations, forum interactions and discussions, and a qweekly tokbox video conference.
In 2010, we will be adding self-paced training that focuses on single issues.

Identify and build a consensus vision based on key NT Church Principles
Build an aligned strategy for determining what needs to be done
Design culturally relevant tactics for implementing what God is asking your church to do

Many churches rely on the wrong balance between Principles and Practices. Getting the right relationship between these can transform the effectiveness of churches caught in the fortress or friendly church trap.

Review posted by Chris E at Amazon:
This will be my second time going through going through the "God's Plan For Church Planting" manual and I must say, it gets better and better! Why? Is it the manual itself? No, It is the effectiveness and simplicity of the material pointing the reader back to the scripture and focusing on the early church - how it started, how it grew, structure, family, how to handle discipline, leadership.......but most importantly, how these supra-cultural, timeless principles mesh with any culture and work effectively today. This will for sure change the way you approach church planting! It might turn you upside down! It certainly has for a lot of people I know who have gone through it.
What is most exciting is to not only see how this is spreading overseas - specifically in SouthEast Asia and India, but how it is starting to spread here in the US.
I encourage you to check out the website www.go-reconcile.org for more information on this ministry.
