Daughter Church Planters Make Disciples

 Hello this is Multiply a podcast to encourage village church planters and leaders I am Brad Snowden. When I was a pastor one of my most treasured events came about when parents wanted to dedicate their lives to raising a baby after God’s word. It was exciting to know that if the parents followed through with what they were saying that another generation would be devoted to following Christ and His word. These parents were not out there on their own but the body of believers would help hold them accountable for the pouring into these young hearts the truth that would help them to grow. When we look back at the Old Testament generational thought was very important to the community. It is the same when we are talking about daughter churches a generation and the activity of the daughter church should incorporate the same teachings and the first generation church plant. One of the greatest models for a church planter to follow is the 7 basic commands of Christ.  Repent and believe, Baptize new believers, Love God and neighbor, Partake of the Lord’s supper, Pray and meditate on God’s word daily, Give, Make disciples

One of the core pieces to God’s road map for every church planter is to disciple- disciple makers. I believe as we allow God to help us our focus can be on the hearts in whom we disciple so they can experience the passion for disciple making. This is so needed in our daughter churches as the work grows so that there is a healthy church body. We must learn that what God has given for us to use in every church planted no matter what generation it is.  The 7 basic commands of Christ is a proven blessing for all church planters and making disciples is a command from Christ. 

Matthew 28:19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, ..." 

It is my prayer that we rejoice with the church planters who are planting daughter churches as they realize the joys of a new generational church plant founded upon tools God gives and truth in His word. We rejoice with you as you make disciples in the next generation church plants that will change lives. This has been a word of encouragement for village church planters. Who will you share this with today?
