Why Discover?
Discover is for those interested in becoming church planters and is designed to help you discover and discern if church planting is the right fit for you.

In the Vineyard, we are committed to train and equip those God has called to plant new churches. Not a month goes by that we dont receive an email or phone call from another desperate person pleading with us to send a Vineyard church planting team to their community. We believe that it is Gods desire to respond to these calls, and we want to plant many more churches throughout the United States and around the world. But we cant possibly do it alone. This is where you come in&

Discover will cover topics potential church planters are interested in&How do you recognize your call? What are the essential qualities of a church planter? What spiritual gifts should a church planter have? How do you develop a vision for church planting?

Weve structured our time together around these three main elements:

Relationship. We want to take the time to get to know one another so most of our meals are planned on site. Take the opportunity to get to know some new people. Share your story and listen to someone else.

Teaching. Youll have the chance to hear from some pretty experienced men and women, folks who have planted a church or two and learned a lot in the process. We keep our teaching short, to the point and leave lots of time for Q & A.

Ministry time. This time of God speaking directly into our lives is the thing most of us remember from these meetings. So come prepared to hear Gods voice speaking into your specific situation.
