START YOUR
ADVENTURE IN CHURCH PLANTING
Called to plant a church? Learn how to do it from experienced church planters.
We're here to help...
Most church planters don't really know where to start, so we equip them with the training and multiplication system, so they can plant effective, gospel-sharing churches anywhere in the world.
What's your church planting vision?
We believe no vision is too big for God. If God has put it on your heart, we’d love to come alongside you and make it possible by equipping you and your team to plant healthy, reproductive, and dynamic churches to reach your community and the world around you effectively for Christ!
"DCPI has captured the absolute urgency of planting churches and has a powerful, proven strategy. They focus on mobilization of nationals, by far the best of all methods. I've seen the results and heartily endorse the work of DCPI."

IT'S MORE THAN JUST A TRAINING.
DCPI offers four categories of training: Planting, Thriving, Cultivating, and Multiplying, to get you and your team ready for every phase of church planting. We want to help you get ready to plant churches, with our PLANTING TRAININGS. We want to help you get your churches healthy and ready to multiply with our THRIVING TRAININGS. We want to help you get more leaders who are ready and willing to plant churches in the future through our CULTIVATING TRAININGS. And, we want to help you think strategically about planting many churches with our MULTIPLYING TRAININGS.
Wherever you are in the world, wherever you are in your church planting journey, whatever size vision you have, we’d love to help.
"Between 2010 and 2020, as we used DCPI's curriculum, we doubled the number of churches planted in North America each year, compared to the prior 50 years."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much does DCPI training cost?
All of our trainings are sponsored by donors, so the curriculum is free for everyone God is calling to participate in a church plant or church planting team!
At times, depending on the training location, there can be an expense to cover the costs of lunch, printing, technology, or the venue. These costs go toward the extra components and are not a charge for training. The desire is that cost is never a hinderance for attendance.
