Planting new churches to spread God's word should be part of every church's strategy.

To fulfill Jesus' instructions to spread His word and win new followers, church leaders should have a plan to expand. While it might be tempting for leaders to feel satisfied with their achievements, they should keep up their momentum, strive to expand their reach, and learn as much as they can about the steps involved in doing so.

In this book, Reverend Geary Reid explains the many factors involved in establishing new churches and provides practical instructions that church leaders can use on their journey. Reid begins with discussing the importance of a strategic plan guided by a clear mission statement, and he points out how critical it is for leaders to stay focused on the mission at hand and, like Joseph and Nehemiah, to stay true to their vision despite the noise and distractions that abound.

Reid explains how a steering committee can help guide long-term planning efforts, and he breaks down the major costs involved with building a new church, such as land, building construction, labor, parking, and information communication and technology (ICT). He details the numerous funding options available to church leaders, including donations, loans, and special fundraising events, and he provides an overview of how to effectively delegate tasks, appoint new church leaders, and coordinate opening ceremonies.

Underlying all these steps, Reid shares the importance leading by example, infusing one's actions with God's spirit and wisdom, and keeping in mind that church leaders are not in competition with one another but with Satan. By adhering to these principles, church leaders can continuously minister to the lost and win new believers.
