    We Train Church Planters

    Why do church planters need training? What makes a healthy church planter? And why is a residency model so important for long-term church health? In Episode 2 of Season 3, Jordan Elder sits down with Redeemer Network Director of Church Planting Reid Monaghan and Redeemer Brady Pastor Paden Berens to discuss the philosophy, structure, and impact of the Redeemer Network Church Planting Residency. Drawing from their own experiences in church planting, they explore why preparation matters, how healthy churches raise up healthy leaders, and what it looks like to train church planters through immersive, church-based discipleship. Along the way, they discuss: Why church planting requires more than passion and giftingThe biblical model of training leaders before sending themHow the Redeemer Network Residency combines theological formation, character development, and practical ministry experienceThe value of collaborative training across churches of different sizes and contextsWhy church planting is a responsibility shared by the whole church, not just a few leadersHow churches can begin praying for and raising up future church plantersWhether you're exploring a call to ministry, considering church planting, or simply want to understand how healthy churches multiply, this conversation offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the Redeemer Network is investing in the next generation of church leaders.
