FRANKLIN — As strange as it sounds, the concept of keeping things simple can sometimes become complicated.
This can be true for leaders and organizers of “simple church”— a form of ministry that gives attendees an opprotunity to “do church” in a low-key, low-cost setting outside of a traditional church building.
The Tennessee Baptist Mission Board recently hosted a webinar for simple church leaders. The event was designed to give attendees a platform to exchange ideas and discuss the challenges and successes of this ministry, as well as providing information and details for those who are potentially interested in planting a simple church. (See graphic below this story to read how several pastors at the webinar defined the concept of ‘simple church.’)
The webinar was led by TBMB church plant specialist Lewis McMullen and moderated by TBMB collegiate ministries director Bill Choate.
