What is the Difference Between Bivo and Covo?

A Bivocational Church Planter works a second job to supplement the salary the church provides. They hope that the church grows enough to be able to provide the financial support to leave their job in the marketplace to focus full-time on the church plant.

A Covocational Church Planter has a primary calling in the marketplace that they never intend to leave. They know that God has called them to be a school teacher, mechanic, graphic designer, engineer, or doctor and at the same time they desire to weave that calling into the plan to plant a church.
