Planters Are Targets

• Church Planting Missionaries Suffer

• Sometimes the assaults are so insidious that they can only be attributed to the Evil one.– CP Movements, David

Garrison

Page 14: INTENTIONAL LIVING

Emotional Hits

• Money Problems

• Sheep Bites & Runaways

• The Crisis

Page 15: INTENTIONAL LIVING

Planting Landmines

• The beauty of church planting is that there isn’t anyone to tell us what to do; we have freedom.

• The pathology of church planting is that there isn’t anyone to tell us what to do, we have freedom to become abusers.

Page 16: INTENTIONAL LIVING

Unchecked Strength

• Planters … who have the ability to start churches from scratch also have some other abilities that can be misused: attractive personalities, relationship-building, empathy, and solid communication skills to name a few.

• Couple that with the fact that new churches exist to reach out to a hurting and needy world, and Satan has a pretty good opportunity to exploit us. The people we target to reach with the gospel come with enough baggage that, when joined with our own weaknesses, lead to powerful volatility.– Tom Nebel

To man belong the plans of the heart, but from the Lord comes the reply of the tongue.

Proverbs 16:1

In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.

Proverbs 16:9

You can make many plans, but the Lord's purpose will prevail.

Proverbs 19:21
