Biblical Church Planting: Reflections and Realities in the 21st Century 1

I had the honor of speaking in New Orleans at the Multiply Louisiana Conference in August.  It was a great blessing to be with pastors and leaders from the Southern Baptist Association, State Convention, and North American Mission Board. I am very thankful for their labors across Louisiana in general, and in New Orleans in particular.

Videos from the plenary sessions were released this week. You may watch my session below, and also download my corresponding presentation slides HERE. I want to thank the Louisiana Baptist Convention for making these recordings available.

The title of my session was “Biblical Church Planting: Reflections and Realities in the 21st Century.” Throughout this year, I have spoken on a variety of topics in many locations. However, I believe this message was one of the most important delivered this year.

It is 45 minutes in length. I address biblical church planting, contemporary realities and challenges, and needed responses. Much of what I advocate is that we need to allow our present expectations to become exceptions and our present exceptions to become expectations.

I hope you will check out the video and the presentation slides. Please share with others.
