My Top 4 Most Influential Church Planting Resources

December 17th, 2005 · 2 Comments

Besides the Bible of course!

I’m a big proponent of the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) method of almost everything. Planting churches is no different. I’ve read a lot of the “new” resources, but find that most only restate old concepts. I also believe that many of the recently published materials fail us in 2 areas: they overlook the fact that most of their readers came to Christ in the very kind of church they are criticizing… and they act as if cell churches and/or house churches are their own invention. I still find value in almost everything I read about church planting, but I keep coming back to these 4… again and again… and keep referring them to others… again and again. And aren’t we blessed that we can freely download 3 of the 4!

I’ll post them one at a time… one every day or two. I want to keep ya coming back here! They are all equally valuable to me so they aren’t in order of importance. The next post will be resource #1 and here’s what you’ll get: the name of the resource… a comment from me… an excerpt… and links to where you can get the goods.

    i completely agree, and your 2 observations were very helpful. It is one thing to criticize in love, and another to criticize by making obnoxious powerpoints for conventions about why this method is the way, the truth, and the life…

    great idea about posting resources, it keeps me visiting…
