The Nuts and Bolts of Church Planting

The Nuts and Bolts of Church Planting:
A Guide for Starting Any Kind of Church
By Aubrey Malphurs (Baker Books)
A 2012 Outreach Resource of the Year

“When Aubrey Malphurs writes a book on church planting, you better read it if you’re a planter or ‘would be’ planter. This is one of the most practical, detailed and comprehensive works on church planting in print. Malphurs offers us a fourfold process based on seven basic assumptions that can be used in any type of church plant rather than another model for church planting. The book is complete with a set of tests and inventories in the appendix to help a ‘would be’ planter decide if he or she is a church planter by nature. This is by far Malphurs’ best work to date and should be read by anyone considering planting a church.” —Bill Easum, from the March/April 2012 issue of Outreach magazine
