Why do we need more churches in North America? The United Pentecostal Church International currently has more than 5,000 congregations in the United States and Canada. Is there really a need for more? On the eve of the annual UPCI North American Missions Launch Conference for church planters, Dr. David K. Bernard explains the importance of church planting and why we need more UPCI churches, especially in heavily populated regions. He shares his own experiences as a church planter in Austin, Texas, and offers guidance on what to do if you feel God is calling you to plant a church.
