  1. Steps of Mentoring Sessions for Sustaining Church Multiplication • Meet and pray, asking for divine wisdom. • Listen to new leaders report on their churches’ opportunities and needs. • Plan together what the leaders’ new churches will do immediately, before your next session. (Write plans on paper.) • Assign ‘studies’ from the Bible and from simple training materials.

  2. Steps of Mentoring Sessions for Sustaining Church Multiplication (continued) • Have new leaders teach to you what they learned from their previously-assigned studies. • Show new skills and practice together those new skills. • Intercede together in behalf of everyone you talked about and for the Lord to raise up more new leaders.

  3. How the Apostles Tracked Outcomes in the Book of Acts 2:41 Numbers of baptisms 2:47 Numbers saved, added to churches 5:14 (Numbers) of men and of women 11:24 Even big numbers from regions 6:1 Numbers of disciples (obedient believers) 6:7 Cases of multiplication 6:7 Caste penetration

  4. How the Apostles Tracked Outcomes in the Book of Acts 9:31 Multiplication by geographical regions 12:24 Both addition growth and multiplication growth 13:48-49 Growth within ethnic communities within regions 16:15 Church participation tracked ‘daily’ 19:20 Noting exceptional increase Romans 15:18-21 Advance into needy regions 2 Cor. 10:12-18 Great increase beyond where there are many believers

  5. The Present Situation in early 2011 • We praise the God and Father of Messiah Jesus for the great advances of the gospel in India. • However, 90% of Jesus’ followers in India still come from 10% of its ethnies. • Thus, many Indians ethnies remain neglected. • Let us do our research, report to the churches, and have beg God to penetrate more ethnies.

  6. Make Use of Statistics to… • Elicit prayer in churches for neglected ethnies. • Recruit volunteers for church planting. • Discover ethnies that are becoming responsive. • Send personnel to responsive regions. • Ensure that all ethnies in a region receive the gospel and get churches. • Coordinate efforts with many other ministries. • Test methods, strategies and materials. • Give an account to the Lord and to partners.

  7. Recommendations • Choose the growth and multiplication “indicators” that you deem important. • Provide workers at every level with pre-made report forms that are easy to fill in. • Make reporting a part of mentoring that seeks to make workers successful. • Constantly cultivate relations of love and trust that encourage honest reporting. • Compile results and keep all levels of workers informed on what God is doing. • Share statistics with regional and national church multiplication mapping services.
