Panel: The Planters

Planting faith communities is not about a formula—it’s a journey marked by uncertainty, resistance, and deep dependence on God. From gathering a team and embedding in a neighbourhood, to navigating limited resources and unseen spiritual realities, the challenges are real and often costly. This panel brings together four experienced church planters from diverse traditions, each carrying hard-won wisdom from the front lines of mission. Together, they’ll reflect honestly on the tensions, failures, and breakthroughs that come with forming new gospel communities—and offer grounded insight for those discerning a call to plant, pioneer, or multiply.
