The Church Planter's Toolkit

by Robert E. Logan

The premier resource for church planters! Combining the wisdom and expertise of Bob Logan and Steve Ogne, The Church Planter's Toolkit offers clear objectives that all church planters need to consider.

The Church Planter's Toolkit includes 12 audio CD's as well as detailed checklists and action planning worksheets to form a comprehensive package for church planters and their supervisors.

Beginning with spiritual foundations, you will learn how to develop effective strategies for starting healthy churches that are applicable in any context.

Logan and Ogne use an easy to understand life-cycle model to describe the phase of new church development (conception, prenatal, birth, growth and reproduction). All the key issues within one phase must be addressed before moving on to the next phase of development, otherwise, significant problems can arise in the new church.

Topics include:

-Perspectives on church planting
-Verifying roles and mobilizing your team
-Clarifying your church planting vision
-Developing your church planting strategy
-Evangelism and core group formation
-Facilities, finances, and organization issues
-Getting your ministries ready for birth
-Dynamic worship that is seeker sensitive
-Expanding networks of cell groups
-Empowering and equipping leaders
-Lay mobilization and ministry development
-Starting churches that reproduce
