The Church Planter Retreat is a training module for church planters to consider the essential aspects of starting a church. This PowerPoint accompanies the training manual

There are five key ingredients essential to most successful church planter training programs that also are found in the approach used by Multiplication Network Ministries. These are: vision, modular training, material content, mentoring, and measurement. Once the church planter has been assessed, usually with a pastor's recommendation and an interview, the following five aspects of church planting will prove helpful for multiplication.

This survey is part of Module 10 of the Mission to Multiply church planter training modules. The Spiritual Gifts Survey consists of 80 statements. These will help you answer what your spiritual gifts are from this list: leadership, administration, teaching, knowledge, wisdom, prophecy, discernment, exhortation, shepherding, faith, evangelism, apostleship, service, mercy, giving, and hospitality.

It includes topics such as: the biblical basis for church planting, the profile and family of the church planter, steps to planting churches, models for church planting, and the characteristics of a healthy church.
