I found out this week in Boise that I am not planting a church…rather I am planting churches. The whole design of church planting is to have planting churches in your DNA. It makes sense. Why go through the work and effort for just one more church to be located somewhere, doing the same thing all the other churches are doing? Part of the DNA of Journey Community is going to be that we are going to plant churches as well.
I heard this week that:
If your vision is for a year—plant wheat
If your vision is for ten years—plant trees
If your vision is for a lifetime—plant people
If your vision is for eternity—plant churches
Journey is a partner in ministry with Hope Community in Reno. In the future we will begin the process of planting another new church somewhere in the U.S. or even internationally. It will be the second for Hope (Journey being their first) and it will be the first of many for Journey.
Pray for this opportunity…it’s going to be an incredible experience.
Take care,
Rod
P.S. By the way, I am planning on “Blogging” a little more frequently at the request of some friends. Keep an eye out.
