Reason 3: Church Planting is a Good Way to Reach Different Cultures and Sub-Cultures

I believe that when we allow our Christology (the Person and work of Christ) to determine our missiology (the way we attempt to connect with people who are far from God) which in turn determines our ecclesiology (the form and function of the church) we will see a wide variety of new churches planted that will connect and reach people groups that would otherwise be un-reached. Simply put, we need all kinds of churches to reach all kinds of people; and that happens best when we plant new communities of faith.
