We believe it is important to provide potential church planters a new kind of missional <\/em>training through the Tentmaker Group<\/a> and discussions with the Porterbrook Network<\/a> (created by the authors of Total Church<\/a> and the pastors of the Crowded House<\/a>.  They have put together a great 2-year program to equip a person to plant.  Porterbrook Curriculum<\/a> pdf).  Our goals would be the following:<\/p>\n
