Roundtable! Round ONE

I am sitting right now at a church planter's roundtable that is being held at Ridge Stone Church.
Gary Lamb is always a great resource for encouragement for churches that are reaching the unchurched.
Shared thoughts from Lamb:
*Embrace the fact of that you are a church plant and you are not a grown up church.
*Embrace that church planting, no matter where you area, is hard. Don't plant a church unless you have been called!
*You can do anything that you want to while being portable. The problem is we may be just to lazy to do it.
*Don't compromise the vision of the church. It's God's Vision. Its your job to carry the vision.
*Your vision has to be worth owning.
*God will provide the money, He owns it all! We serve a GOD that owns a cattle on a thousand hills and we ask for a cheese burger. You need an Assimilation Pastor!
*Equip your volunteers. The greatest churches assimilate around 20%.
