Vineyard Planting Strategy

From Cutting Edge, Fall 2003

There are several key metropolitan areas around the country that are lacking a catalytic, church planting church -- areas in which the Vineyard can and should have a larger presence. But there seems to be a limited number of people who are able to do this -- and it is rare that it happens with a planter's first church plant. Because of the high learning curve, planting usually takes more time the first time around, and developing a church that can plant lots of other churches is contingent on the pastor's call and gifting.
