Part 1: Growing God's Church God's Way
Nov 3, 2019 • Mark Johnson
The NT shows a pattern of churches planting churches… Churches plant churches when… 1. The Gospel is Spreading (Acts 11:19-27), 2. The Word is Central (12:24). 3. The People Are Serving (12:25), 4. The Leadership is Sacrificial (13:1-2), 5. The Body is Supportive (13:3-4).
1 Corinthians reminds a planted church of its priorities. 1 Corinthians 3 calls us to live (and plant churches) with Christ-exalting growth. HOW DOES GOD GROW A CHURCH?
