Stones and Ripples
When a stone hits water, it creates ripples. The greater the stone, the greater the ripples.
As a leader, you are the stone thrown into the water. Drawing on this analogy, Gareth Robinson offers ten guiding principles for pioneers and church planters. Beginning with five characteristics for your own life, this book encourages and equips you to develop a deep relationship with Jesus. Robinson then maps out five practical steps to help your pioneering initiative move from vision to multiplication, as the ripples of your own life flow out to the community you are called to love and serve.
Whether you’re starting out on a new venture or already in the throes of a church plant, this is an essential travel guide for those on the pioneering journey.
ENDORSEMENTS
“Drawing on twenty years of experience, Gareth opens up some of the principles he has learned in church planting and establishing new communities for God’s glory. I highly recommend this book for anyone feeling that nudge to step out and pioneer in a new church.”
DR. AMY ORR-EWING, president, OCCA (The Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics)
“When you’re doing pioneering work it’s important to have a guide. Someone with ideas but also the understanding that only experience brings. They know the hard, lonely work of turning dreams into reality. They remember the battles they lost, but also the wisdom won and joy of responding toGod’s call. This is why this book is so valuable. Gareth offers a resource that will inspire and guide you for the days ahead.”
