Today's mini-episode from Robert is a short, deep dive into the good work of evangelism.

Money is a touchy subject in churches, and with good reason. Too often we try to guilt people into giving, when we should be motivating them. In this episode, Pete and Peyton help explain how viewing giving as worship and mission is the biggest paradigm shift that we need to help people make, and they give some practical steps for how your church plant can begin to model that.Resources and Links Mentioned in this Episode:Reliant Mission: reliant.org/cppNewBreed TrainingMissionbyBusiness.comThanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

Do you ever wonder if there's a better strategy (or any other strategy than the one you're using!) to reach lost people in your life in a way that feels authentic, kind, and not-cringy? For today's episode of CPP, Mat and Robert dig into this topic. They address cultural barriers to evangelism within the church, and shared personal experiences with engaging in spiritual dialogue with others, emphasizing non-confrontational, inclusive approaches. They also discuss strategies for evangelism specifically for church plants, focusing on creating a welcoming environment for sharing spiritual journeys, transitioning from casual to meaningful conversations, and building long term relationships. If that's not enough, there will be more! This is most likely part one of a longer series, so come back next week for more thoughts on evangelism.  Find more from the Church Planter Podcast on instagram @churchplanterpodcast, on Facebook at Church Planter Podcast, twitter @cPlanterPodcast, and YouTube at Church Planter Podcast. Church planting Church plant Church startup New church Planting a church Christian community Faith community Church growth Church development Christian ministry Church outreach Spiritual community Church planting network Church planting resources Church planting strategies Church planting organization Church planting conference Church planting movement Church planting missions Church planting training Church planting assessment Church planting consultant Church planting support Church planting coach Church planting blogMentioned in this episode:This episode was brought to you by ChurchWebBuilder.
