Planting a seed

For almost a year now Mike and I have been talking about the idea of getting involved in church planting. It is definitely a subject that we have are gradually getting more excited about and are to the point now that we really feel God is leading us to start taking some action. We are now living in the Beaverton, OR area which is near where we have thought about planting a church. Our idea now is to start working on forming our church plant while Mike works a "secular" job at the same time. We will still be in ministry and will be working toward full-time ministry in the future when we can be fully supported by a church or by individuals who feel strongly about helping our church plant succeed. We have lots of logistics to work out to take the next step and we will be praying about how to go about that now. There are different organizations out there that work with church planting and we may be able to join their program. We already have many ideas about what we would do as a church plant and that has been fun and exciting to brainstorm and think about all the great things we could do.
