Multiplanting: A Vision for Growing Churches, Leaders and Mission

by Colin Baron, Tom O'Toole, Tim Simmonds

Many church leaders believe that the most effective way to fruitful kingdom ministry is by growing a large church, but what if this big church dream is actually inhibiting us from seeing the quantity and quality of impact that we long for? Over the last twenty-five years of ministry in Manchester, England, Colin Baron has been pioneering a different approach; planting smaller, inter-connected congregations throughout the city that operate together as one church. Strong enough together for each survive and thrive, and yet small and dispersed enough to penetrate into the region in a way that growing one big church would never be able to do. Multiplanting describes the journey Colin, and his team at Christ Church, have been on to fulfil a vision of multiplying church congregations across one region of northern England.

Wow! This was so helpful, inspiring and practical

This was an incredible book. I have long thought there must be a solution to church planting that took the positive aspects of planting independently led church plants and the incredible support, finances and resources of a larger church! Colin Baron has done it. Not just in theory, but in practice. I am sure this will become a “go to” reference for many. It certainly will be for me!
