Pastor Lane preaches for Second Baptist Church’s (Springfield, MO) Church Planting celebration. Drawing from Ezekiel’s prophecy for the failure of the people to obey God, and there being no one to stand in the breach with God, Pastor Lane exhorts Christians to give up their lives to tell the world of the One who gave His life to save, Jesus. Church planting is not a good strategy, but the paradigm for gospel mission in the world. Three primary motivations lead Christians to let God work through their lives to plant churches. May this message encourage and help.
