    CPP #533 – How to Ensure That Your Church Plant Stays on Mission

    CPP #533 – How to Ensure That Your Church Plant Stays on Mission

    When Jesus trained the Twelve, he was prepping them for the Great Commission. Believers have always been meant to go on mission, but mission tends to get left by the wayside after a church plant gets going. How can you prevent that? Peyton Jones has some thoughts in this episode.

    CPP #532: A Blended Ecology of the Church: with Chris Backert

    CPP #532: A Blended Ecology of the Church: with Chris Backert

    For today's episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Robert is live with Chris Backert, pastor, author, the senior director of Fresh Expressions NA, and leader in the Ascent movement. The two talk all things mission and evangelical witness. They discuss the decline of traditional denominationalism in the church and the emergence of new forms of church expressions, including microchurches and networks, and explore the challenges and opportunities faced by church planters, the concept of a "blended ecology of church," and the cyclical nature of church growth and decline. They end with a discussion on the importance of engaging with children and youth, the need for better theological education, and the potential of planting churches in less "desirable" areas. 
    More on Chris Backert: 

    Working with church leaders to develop new expressions of Christian community is the passion of Chris’s life. In addition to his role as Senior Director of Fresh Expressions NA, he serves with the Baptist General Association of Virginia in the area of growth and venture development. He also serves as National Director for both Ecclesia, a US network of missional churches, as well as Missio Alliance. Previously, he served as pastor of New Life Christian Fellowship, a large university congregation in Blacksburg, Virginia and has been involved in the planting of three new congregations. Chris holds a D.Min. in Missional Church Leadership from Fuller Theological Seminary. He lives in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania with wife Rachel, daughter Elliana and son Jase.

    CPP #530: Missional Outreach and Church Planting, Pt. 2/2

For just $10, you'll get access to a facebook group of people all across the country who are doing this program, everything you need to put on the camp, sample outlines, sample lesson plans, project management, calendars, and more!

Bill Bick ,

My updated review after 9 years

I have been listening since 2015 started with Hardcore Church planting. I had to update my review. Pete your still the Man. Your Podcast has been a shield in my Armor. Thank you keep it up. I do miss smack talk at the beginning. I like to be tickled before the slap. Change is hard maybe one day I’ll start liking the slap first. May God and his word keep us uncomfortable and moving towards him.

Your moms moms gradma ,

Wow!

Thank you Peyton for directing me to this! I’ll email again once I’ve had a chance to get a little more educated. Gods at work

Faith Makayla ,

Captivating so useful

I only resent my have started listening to this podcast. The dynamic Payton and Pete have is so great. As a young person feeling called towards missions I’ve already learned so many things that’ll be useful. So excited to listen to more of this podcast!
