The church planting program of World Impact (Evangel) exists to support your movement, ministry network, denomination, or church as you develop a sound, reproducible strategy to plant healthy churches in communities experiencing poverty.
Since 2016, World Impact has equipped more than 700 church plant teams like yours to create a strategy for each unique ministry context in the United States and around the world.
The Evangel School of Urban Church Planting is designed for you and your church plant team.
Evangel is a principle-based strategy for church planting which can be applied to multiple contexts of planting, re-planting, seasons of transition, and other applications. This has been proven through the years as we have coached teams like yours to develop a strategy for each unique context.
The Evangel School of Urban Church Planting is designed to equip church plant teams who are planting a new church, those who are preparing to re-plant (restart, revitalize, or relaunch) an existing church, those who are seeking a process for transitioning to next generation of pastoral leadership, and those seeking to catalyze a church planting movement using World Impact’s principle-based P.L.A.N.T strategy for planting churches.
The Evangel School utilizes the Church P.L.A.N.T. Manual which will direct your church plant team to understand the principles of church planting, turn principles into actionable goals during guided sessions, and develop a one-year strategic plan.
In addition to the training and materials, your church plant team will be led by an Evangel Coach during the school as you complete team exercises and discern your unique path with your team.
When your church plant team completes the school and charters with World Impact, you will be provided an Evangel Field Coach who will walk with your team for twelve months after the school as you seek to P.L.A.N.T the church God has birthed in your hearts for His glory.
"The Evangel School was incredible for me and my team. We are set to plant our church here in Detroit this September and this is the first time any of us have been a part of a church plant. The school gave us the structure, framework, and encouragement that will help guide us into this call the Lord has placed on our hearts. We left not only with a plan, but with confidence in what the Lord is doing in and through our team.” -Pastor Micah Williams, Unity Church – Detroit, MI
