Existing Churches Pathway
-
Step one is simply getting to know us better. Visit the About Us page to explore who we are as a network—you’ll find helpful insight into our theology, gospel aroma, and church attributes.
-
Next, connect with a leader from our network by selecting Partner on our website, then Church Planting Pastor, and clicking the Connect button. After filling out the form, you will be connected with a network leader. This initial conversation will help us decide the best next steps together. You can also connect with us by attending a Treasuring Christ Together Network event—head over to the Events page to find one near you.
-
After a few conversations with a network leader, and it feels like a good fit for us all, the next step is to apply for partnership.
This application gives us a deeper look into your life, your philosophy of ministry, your giftings, and the unique context of your ministry. Once the application is complete we will walk through the rest of the process which includes a theological interview and in-person visit.
Once we receive your application, we’ll take time to review it carefully. If it feels like the right fit, we’ll schedule an in person visit.
-
Before joining the Treasuring Christ Together Network, every existing church will receive a visit from one or two of our network leaders. This visit is an important step in discerning whether partnership is a good mutual fit. It's also a valuable opportunity to build deeper relationships, answer any remaining questions, and involve other key leaders-elders, deacons, staff, and members-in the final decision to join the network.
-
Once approved to plant with the Treasuring Christ Together Network, you will experience the benefits of the Christ treasuring partnership shared by member churches.
