i must admit i get disheartened sometimes when i talk to church planters. more and more it’s about the money. we have an area of Paulding County that has been a fast growing community. it also just happens to be the richest part of the county. guess where there are now 7 church plants and another one about to make the plunge from another part of the county.

so, if you are reading this, i know a pretty good place to start a church in Paulding County, GA. according to demographers still the 9th fastest growing county in the U.S. it won’t be where the money is, but it will be where not another contemporary church for 10-15 miles is located. middle class people need Jesus too. you won’t get rich, but there will be a lot of people to win to Jesus.

in that realm of running for the money. one of the summer interns at one of our church plants turned down a position at another church with a salary to raise his own salary and go to work for the church plant. that my friends is commitment. our interns this summer from Liberty University were top notch. and a thank you to the Gilcrease’s for opening their home for the summer.
