Our job as church leaders should be to help people move from being anonymous to known and engaged in our churches. We need to help people move deeper into their discipleship journey. However, that's often a confusing and poorly communicated process. In this episode, Blue Van Dyke and Chestly discuss how more clearly communicate and implement your discipleship journey within your church.Resources and Links Mentioned in this Episode:thestudioc.orgReliant Mission: reliant.org/cppNewBreed TrainingMissionbyBusiness.comThanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

Many people aren't transformed by their involvement with a church because the church does not have a defined transformation process. We expect people to magically become more like Jesus without any intentionality. Chestly and Pete talk about how to build a process that anyone in your church can go through and help lead.Resources and Links Mentioned in this Episode:To work with Chestly, text TRANSFORMATION to 330-774-2126Reliant Mission: reliant.org/cppNewBreed TrainingMissionbyBusiness.comThanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

We're back with another Wednesday episode, the next in our Wednesday series on rethinking evangelism and reaching lost people. Today, Mat and Robert discuss the evolving views on religion in the U.S. and the importance of being present in order to join where the Spirit is already moving in the world around you. They explore the shift in American society towards a non-majority religious population, highlighting the continued spiritual hunger and the role of shared experiences that foster a sense of belonging, the power of vulnerability and the value of creating soft spaces for people to care for one another. Look out next week for a discussion on how to have gospel conversations with the people of peace in your life!  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.

Church planters have the opportunity to set their culture for all sorts of leadership practices including empowering the next generation, developing women, and creating systems of accountability. Kadi Cole and Chestly discuss all of these critical topics and why church planters need to think hard and plan carefully so that they don't end up perpetuating the example of many established churches that often fail in these areas.Resources mentioned in this episode:MomentumMarketplace.orgKadiCole.comNewBreedTraining.comMissionByBusiness.com

Our culture is changing whether you're ready or not. The next generation of leaders will be different from us and it's our job to figure out how to relate to them and equip them to follow Jesus in their own ways. In this episode, Chestly Lunday interviews Russ Ewell on how he's living this out in his local church and how he sees the generational shifts continuing into the future.Resources and Links Mentioned in this Episode:https://russewell.com/Reliant Mission: reliant.org/cppNewBreed TrainingMissionbyBusiness.comThanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

Today's mini-episode from Robert is a short, deep dive into the good work of evangelism. He debunks a typical, common way that existing churches and church plants tend to think about church planting, and suggests other ways to become the answer to the world through following the way of Jesus (missional purpose) and proclaiming the good news where and how people will hear it.  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 blog

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.
