Readiness implies that we are ready for the task ahead. The task? Church planting. Are we ready to start new churches? What does it take to get ready? It takes a desire first and foremost. Without desire there is no effort. Do we have the desire? After desire sets in there will be an effort to get ready. That's a worthy work all by itself.
Recruitment implies that while we are getting ready we need to be recruiting laborers. That means actively seeking, and engaging those who will labor in church planting. Praying above everything else that the Lord of the harvest will send those laborers out to start churches.
Mentoring implies that those who are ready and recruited are in need of equipping, encouragement, and one on one lifting up in the work of church planting.
Multiplication implies that those recruited were ready and with great encouragmenet multiplied themselves in making new disciples and planting new churches.
