Why A New Ministry
Prayer and Deliverance Ministry Planting was the primary New Testament strategy for extending God’s kingdom and fulfilling His missionary mandate. The book of Acts depicts the spread of the gospel throughout Asia and Europe. Almost all of Paul’s letters were written to new churches either he or someone else he knew had started. Fulfilling the Great Commission will always involve planting new ministry because “God has chosen his disciples to make known his manifold wisdom.”
