TREASURING CHRIST TOGETHER


Why attend?

Sit alongside aspiring church planters while learning from other church planters against the backdrop of a church plant. The Church Planting Weekender allows you to see, touch, and learn about planting churches as though the church mattered. As though pastoral ministry and the aim of knowing and enjoying Christ as a family mattered. Come, see and savor the glory of Christ as we consider the establishment of His blood-bought people.

It’s our prayer that our time together will inflame your heart, inform your mind, and provide practical resources for your ministry.

LIMITED ATTENDANCE: We’re limiting this event to 60 people to facilitate a more intimate, conversational environment.

"Planting churches by pastoring names, not numbers, for the aim of treasuring Christ together."

SPONSORS


A network of churches joyfully serving pastors and their wives, and supporting churches to start new Christ-treasuring churches.

At 9Marks  helps pastors, future pastors, and church members see what a biblical church looks like, and to take practical steps for becoming one. Our goal is to see churches characterized by nine biblical marks of a healthy church.

BOOKS & MORE!


Every church planter benefits from good books. So, leave a little extra room in your luggage to take home a stack of free books. These will include titles such as:

Minister as Shepherd by Charles Jefferson
The Glory of Christ by John Owen
Conversion by Michael Lawrence
Seeing & Savoring Christ by John Piper

Each attendee also receives a jump drive with a decade’s worth of on-the-ground church planting resources. Editable versions of resources like budgets, connection cards, position papers, and more are yours to use as you like!
