Many young people hesitate to commit — always wondering if something better is coming next. But discipleship calls for something different: not endless options, but faithful commitment to godly endeavors.

A great sending church makes all the difference. Sovereign City Church launched in Las Vegas a few weeks back. But it was a team effort. Pastor Ricky Harris was sent out of Hope Church, and here is what he said about his sending church ⬇️ “Hope church is kingdom-minded! They believe in building the kingdom and not just a church service. Without their wisdom, love, and generosity, we could not have gotten this far.” Hope sent a large team to plant with Sovereign City, regularly sent volunteers to serve them, and continuously encouraged their people to be part of the church plant. 💡 We are seeing God do incredible things through sending churches that seek first the kingdom of God.

For decades, women attended church at higher rates than men. That trend is shifting—and can’t be ignored. When women disengage, the body of Christ loses vital wisdom, gifts, and spiritual mothering. Check out 3 ways your church plant can respond. ⬇️ newchurches.com/article/fewer-…

Good word by @tonymerida !

God didn’t save us to SIT. He saved us to be SENT. We weren’t just rescued to be informed; we were rescued to be involved in what God is doing... to be released into His mission so the power of the gospel could bring life to the world around us. -@VancePitman

“There are many of us that are willing to do great things for the Lord, but few of us are willing to do little things.” -D.L. Moody

Hope Church Las Vegas didn’t just send Pastor Ricky Lee Harris—they sent three teams and invested their own resources to fuel a new launch. This is the vision: Established churches raising up, sending out, and multiplying gospel impact. Thank you for giving to #AAEO26 to support new works across North America. ⛪️🙌

These two planters had never met ⬇️ One church planter from San Francisco — the other from Connecticut. Each found a home with Send Network. ✳️ Joe felt most at home in the missional emphasis. ✳️ Arthur has been most blessed by the care and support. It’s a joy to walk with these heroic planters!

Helpful clarity by @MattSmethurst!

God prepared Joe for ministry even as he ran from his calling. Now, as he plants in San Francisco, Pastor Joe has a renewed passion to see his church reach the lost in his city. We also want to shout out Joe’s wonderful sending church, Resonate Church!
