04 Building Church

05 Faithful

August 20, 2019 • Andrew Selley

The word of God says that if we are faithful with the little, then God will grace us with the more. Faithfulness is a crucial trait for any church planter, especially if we are to properly steward the people that the Lord gives to us to lead.

08 People Focused

A church cannot exist without people. Therefore in church planting, it is crucial to understand that in order to build God's house we need to build into the lives of His children, focusing on serving them instead of benefitting ourselves.

09 Spirit Led
