One more thing

ARC is not creating new experiences but they're really good at helping people plant churches most of the time. There are plenty of failures that have happened but the ARC movement is strong.Try to attend one of their regional events & you'll leave blessed & inspired.There is a reason why our denomination has partnered with them to get help in creating & planting churches Empty nest syndrome is for the birds!Email me at: [email protected] planters are focused on just one thing ...introducing people to Jesus!

ARC is a great church planting fellowship.Church of the Highlands and Pastor Chris Hodge are credible, biblically-based and Spirit-filled/led.

If you think Highlands and Chris Hodges are children's church for adults, then you clearly haven't listened to him.IMO he is one of the best combinations of Spirit-filled and educated that I've ever heard. He's one of those guys that God just decided to touch and give a special anointing and capacity. Their material is great, his teaching is great, and their theology is sound.

ARC had the know-how of church planting about 10-15 years ago. But culture nowadays shifts fast. By the time we got to use them, the only thing they had left was the financial ability to give credits to startup churches. Overall, their church planting simply does not fit our organizational approach to ministry. Forget the interest on the loan, systems, logistics, etc. Their know-how demands that a church is projected and grown by their standards because this is the only way they can measure the progress of the new plant. There are at least two new churches that come to mind locally which checked into ARC first but chose to go with a more conventional program that preserved our movement's identity. The more urgent concern right now is does Lee offer a Digital discipleship course yet? It is the hot topic in several denominations with the stay-at-home pastors and the drive-through church right now
