I would love to hear from anyone that knows of someone that has started a new church or mission since the ABA meeting in June this year. Are you out there somewhere?
After having spoken to a few it is our opinion that 100 new churches/missions is not an unrealistic goal for our ABA churches.
If the Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia (about 500 churches) can plant over a hundred new churches in one year then the ABA could do even more since there are over 1500 churches in the whole association. Don't you think?
What will it take for us to catch this vision? Who will help cast the vision for this? Is there anyone? Or is mine the only voice?

Talk, Talk, Talk, Will you plant one?
I'm leaving this comment to "Anonymous". Yes, I am seriously considering to plant a multi-cultural church in the DFW area. You need to read that blog.
Another said to me regarding my blog about planting a church in Vancouver BC. He felt I was just the man that needed to do it. My observation: "we're missing the point"! In order to stir up a church planting movement it is critical to catch the vision for "church planting". If we're more concerned about who ought to go and plant a church rather than "planting churches", we've missed the whole point of it.
God will call the men for church planting if we show Him that we are serious enough to do something about it. "Anonymous" will you join me in doing something about it?

We are so dried up that when anyone shows a desire to do anything for God we think that they should do it.
Wanting to see Gods work go forward should be the norm for a Christian not a call.
Ever read the book "Revolution" by George Barna?
