Church Planting In The Korean Nazarene Church: An Evaluation Of The "1991 Thrust To The City Of Seoul" Program, Ki Young Hong
Journal of the American Society for Church Growth
The Korean Nazarene Church (KNC) plans to plant 70 new churches in Seoul by 1993 through the "1991 Thrust to the City of Seoul” program. To date, more than fifteen churches have been planted in Seoul through this program. The purpose of this article is to evaluate the KNC’s church planting effort in Seoul and offer some suggestions for how it could be strengthened.
Staffing A Church For Growth: A Church Planting Model, Gary L. Mcintosh
Staffing A Church For Growth: A Church Planting Model, Gary L. Mcintosh
Journal of the American Society for Church Growth
What is the best way to staff a church so that it grows? Historically this has not been an urgent question for church leaders. Throughout most of church history few churches were large enough to have multiple church staff members. It has only been since the Industrial Age of the mid 1800s that enough people were clustered in cities to produce churches large enough to need multiple staff members. Even then multiple staffing did not become a well known phenomenon until the 1950s when the growing complexity of the so-called Information Age sprang upon the church increasing mobility, diversity, and …
The Framework For A National Strategy In Church Planting, Charles Chaney
The Framework For A National Strategy In Church Planting, Charles Chaney
Journal of the American Society for Church Growth
A revolution has occurred in the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) in the past half century. The geographical boundaries of the South no longer contain us. Cultural and racial sameness, which once marked the convention, while still pervasive in some areas of our greatest strength, is no longer true nationally. Southern Baptists are ready now to think and act from a national perspective. For the first time, a truly national strategy is a possibility.

Church Growthcoming Of Age, Elmer Towns
Church Growthcoming Of Age, Elmer Towns
Journal of the American Society for Church Growth
The Church Growth movement is relatively young in recognition and development. Even though there have been growing churches since Pentecost, Church Growth is a relatively young area of study. As a discipline, it has come a long way since its birth, and must move through adolescence to adulthood. I think we in the North American Society of Church Growth have a better understanding of the nature and purpose of Church Growth than anyone outside our discipline. Some outside our movement, or perhaps many, do not know who we are or what we do. There is still ignorance about Church Growth.
Towards A Church Growth Agenda For The 1990'S, Eddie Gibbs
Towards A Church Growth Agenda For The 1990'S, Eddie Gibbs
Journal of the American Society for Church Growth
The Church Growth Movement in North America is now fifteen Years old and these two days represent the occasion of the fourth annual meeting of the North American Society for Church Growth. As we review the past we can celebrate a great deal of significant achievement in applying Church Growth insights to mobilizing the membership in a giftbased ministry, leadership management, and a new church planting. It occurs to me that, having covered a range of basic issues, and since we are now beginning to see the proliferation of individual concerns according to our various areas of interest, that there …
Ethnic Church Planting, Daniel Sanchez
Ethnic Church Planting, Daniel Sanchez
Journal of the American Society for Church Growth
Undoubtedly one of the first questions which comes to mind when we think about this subject is, "Why do we need to plant ethnic churches?" Several answers can be given. Permit me to mention three reasons: (1) a clear biblical mandate; (2) an urgent demographic necessity; and (3) an encouraging pattern of receptivity.
