Church Planter Recruitment Process
Recently, the elders at Capitol Hill Baptist put together a process for recruiting and sending out church planters. I found it interesting and helpful, you might too. Here's a link for you to download a one-page summary:
If you're interested in being a CHBC church planter, just call the church office and ask for Matt Schmucker. Don't be discouraged if he doesn't call you back, just keep calling. It's the way they weed out the uncommitted.
Looks good, Thanks.

The first statement is par excellence:
"A focus on pastoral placement While we are open to “greenfield” church planting, our preference will always be to place a pastor (and
potentially a portion of our members) in a struggling Baptist church that is eager to adopt a new vision and be
rekindled in the work of evangelism and discipleship."
I would love nothing more than to see dying churches replanting.
And the step by step process from 2 years prior to 2 years after has my gears to thinking.
Thank you for sharing this. God bless you and smile upon you.
