The purpose of this course is to help church leaders turn their aspirations and good intentions for multiplication into compelling visions with actionable strategies to become a church that will make a difference for generations to come.

“Bottom line: You cannot expect to change the world if you don’t first decide to change the world. But decision-making isn’t enough. There is concrete planning to do; inevitably tensions will follow. But as this book points out, multiplication is doable. Jesus has not only commissioned you to make disciples, He has also equipped you and your church for this world-changing mission.”
~Ralph Moore, founder of the Level 5 Hope Chapel multiplication movement, which has planted more than 2,000 churches worldwide.
