About:
Church planting is no longer the new thing, but when it comes to reaching people with the gospel and discipling believers in the gospel, it is still the best thing, because it is God's thing! The local church is his primary mission strategy. The 2014 Acts 29 Europe Conference will focus upon the essentials of scattering churches around the world, also known as church planting. Attention will be given to unpacking the biblical mandate and theological foundation of this vital strategy. It will help equip us to plant explicitly gospel centred churches that thrive and reproduce even in a hostile environment such as Europe - the most secular continent in the world.

With a combination of plenary sessions and break-out groups Multiplying Churches will be robust practical theology for anyone who wants to be a faithful and competent minister of Christ. So whether you serve him in the home, the workplace, or in what is sometimes called 'full-time' gospel ministry, this conference will help you to get involved with God's mission strategy in an ambiguous, often indifferent and increasingly hostile world.

Matt Chandler, Pastor of The Village Church, Dallas and President of Acts 29. He is the author of the Explicit Gospel and To Live Is Christ, To Die Is Gain.
