Church Planting on Two Continents

TellEurope.Org

On Thursday, I presented on the characteristics of effective church planters and asked what unique competencies were needed for missionaries in Western Europe. This led to some fascinating conversation.

It was good to finish up and head back from Barcelona. (I am writing this in the airport without a spell checker so please ignore any typos!)

Make sure you visit TellEurope.Org and learn more about what these church planters and missionaries are doing in Western Europe. I brought several innovative pastors with me and I think this will lead to some positive partnerships for the future.
