RTS Charlotte: The Center for Church Planting

Just as much goes into pastoral formation, so also developing a pastor to be a church planter requires development. The Center for Church Planting at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte, NC provides both the theoretical and the hands-on experience needed to develop the core competencies of their students. In this webinar, the Director, Dr. Dean Faulkner, along with students and plants, will discuss the benefits of the program at RTS-Charlotte.
