What Do Sending Churches and Dying Churches Have in Common?
The Preacher’s Collective not only helps churches raise up, equip, and send out those who are called to preach, but it also provides gospel proclamation in pastorless churches. Here’s how it works.
Raising Up Church Leaders From Within
The stories of a lack of leadership are endless. Unhealthy churches expect other churches to raise up and release the leaders their church needs or will need. Healthy churches raise up leaders, disciple and mentor them, and give them opportunities to serve within the congregation.
The Role of Orality for Disciple Making and Church Multiplication
Small, simple, reproducible, and economical congregations are where the greatest growth of the Kingdom is taking place, much like the Early Church. When we recognize that a true church can be a small, simple cell group or assembly of believers, it opens up many new possibilities for church growth and multiplication. When addressing the idea of establishing congregations or communities of followers of Jesus everywhere and among all people groups, the methods and strategies of orality become vital.
