Church Planting Essentials Lessons From Those Who Have Been There

DCPI has two convictions about the Church Planting Essentials training. The first conviction is the 12 Biblical Principals Of Church Planting is essential for the development and birth of a healthy new church. Every session in the training will support and apply one or more of the Biblical principles. The second conviction is knowledge without wisdom is insufficient and learning without application is incomplete. Therefore, in order to receive the best out of the Church Planting Essentials training each participant is required to prepare Vision-Plan-TimeLine (VPT). It is designed to help you begin applying what you are learning in the training and to move you further along in the vision and planting of new churches.
