CP Forum

A newly developed blog for church planters has replaced our previous “chat” site.  While aimed at church planters in Denton Baptist Association, all church planters are welcome to visit the site and offer comments and content.



  Church Planting

Strategic Priority
The growing population of Denton County naturally causes us to see the need for additional churches. But our involvement in church planting is more than a numbers game. We are involved in church planting because we believe it is our most strategic means for reaching an un-churched, non-believeing,and rapidly expanding population.

Facts:

World population has passed 6 billion

The U.S. has exceeded 300 million

Texas has passed 20 million

Denton County has increased beyond 578,000 with projections to reach 1 million by 2030




Steps to Planting


The "Steps to Planting" power point presentation is a simplified look at the process used to plant a new church. While Denton Baptist Association is not locked into a ritual for planting, this process does generally reflect our standard practice.

To begin exploring the steps to planting a church with Denton Baptist Association, contact Gary Loudermilk or call 940-498-5200. Church planting is not for everyone, but it may be for you.
