Planting new churches is still the best form of evangelism there is. The reasons are many:
1. Every effort is being made to reach lost and unchurched people for Christ.
2. The Church Planter is thinking, praying, and working for souls to come to Christ.
3. The Sending Church is praying, giving, and working for souls to come to Christ.
4. Partnering (supporting) churches are doing the same.
5. New people that come to the new church being taught about soulwinning. (DNA being established firmly in soulwinning and witnessing).
6. The new church is giving out tracts, bibles, and sharing their faith energetically.
The above are just a few reasons why Planting Churches is the best form of Evangelism. Isn't it amazing that this was God's plan from the beginning of the Gospel? God sent His Son to seek and to save the lost. He made disciples (the Jerusalem Church) and they made disciples (more churches) and went throughout the world (starting more churches).
Reproducing is what the above describes. Therefore Churches starting churches (reproducing) increases the momentum for evangelism. Let's start more churches and quit worrying about land and buildings. Jesus nor the disciples (early churches) ever bought land or built buildings and the kingdom of God grew and multiplied. Maybe that's our problem? Too much effort on land and buildings and not enough effort in starting churches?
Let's plant more churches and evangelize more effectively.
