http://www.plantingonfaith.com From suburban Vancouverites to Albertan Church Planters Sat, 18 Dec 2010 21:07:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2 http://www.plantingonfaith.com/why-plant-a-church/#comment-106 David Wed, 29 Sep 2010 20:15:24 +0000 http://www.plantingonfaith.com/?page_id=256#comment-106 Shane, I came across your blog the other day, and am enjoying what I've been reading. Your stats on churches and church planting are right on. It is disheartening to see the church in decline, and some church leaders in denial about the situation. I listened to Earl Creps, a church planter with the AoG in California, talking about the direction the church should take. When asked by denominational officials his advice for future direction, he stated that every senior pastor should resign and go plant a church. That would accomplish two things: new churches would be planted, and younger pastors would have the opportunity to take on positions of leadership. Be encouraged in your efforts to plant a church. God will bless your faithfulness, and a harvest will be realized from seeds planted today. Thanks for writing. http://revdavidporter.wordpress.com David Shane,
