"I feel gifted in evangelism and church planting and would like to know more about church planting in urban North America."

I know that many of you are frustrated. You think, "How can I become a church planter in North America?" You have deduced that it is easier to become a church planter in exotic, foreign contexts than in urban North America.

You think,

"Who will support me?"

"What is the nature of church planting?

"Do I do this alone or are there people who could help me?

An alarming percentage of church plantings in North America fail. Often the reason is because individuals launch into church planting without:

• developing an adequately theological foundation for the new church,
• fully understanding the local culture and how to speak to into that culture in ways they can understand,
• the ability to implement strategies which effectively bring unbelievers to Christ.

Mission Alive is here to help you by providing assessment and training labs and collaborative networking within a community of church planters.

Mission Alive believes that no one should plant a church alone. Church planters must learn from each other and be part of a community of learning.
