As God opens up the opportunities you begin to expand the ministries of the church and empower the local people to lead those ministries. The structuring phase becomes a time of great satisfaction as the hard labor begins to pay off. And a church planter's joy comes when the church plant had reproduced itself by planting another church. In this section of the lecture"Development Phases of Church Planting" Craig Ott: - talks about the tasks of expanding and empowering during the phase of structuring; - looks at the biblical text in the Book of Acts to show how the church addresses the needs and finds new ways to meet these needs; - talks about the task of stengthening and sending during the phase of reproduction or multiplying. In conclusion of this section Craig Ott emphasizes different spiritual gifts that are necessary during the phases of launching, establishing, structuring and multiplying.
