Successful Church Plants that Look Like Venture Start-ups

Listen Later

Could it be that successful church planting is really nothing more than good marketing, knowing your demographic, and selling the faith to those you know will listen? In this episode of the “Now Is the Time” I share with you an interesting podcast that looks as church planting from a secular standpoint and sees many similarities to the business world. I discuss the idea of marking and its role in the success of the church.

Questions:
  1.  I thought I heard you mention ministering at a “New Church” in one of your video segments. Could you provide more info on that, or let me know if I misheard you. Love you guys. You’re in our prayers.
  2. What are the biggest cultural barriers to ministry in Ukraine? Eastern Europe in general?
  3. Do you find most people receptive to your message?
  4. What are some of the most significant tangible barriers? (i.e. resources related problems)
  5. How is it different making relationships with Ukrainians than it is with Americans? Is it different?
  6. Do you feel lonely in your work?
  7. Where do you see the greatest need for workers?
  8. What about working in Eastern Europe brings you the most joy?
  9. If someone had the goal of entering ministry work in Ukraine or Eastern Europe in general, how could they best prepare themselves?

    10. PS. Check out my book Is God Calling Me to Missions for a more detailed discussion on how to prepare for mission.
