IV. Our Interdenominational Identity While Developing Commonality to Facilitate Standardization and Reproducibility

We will partner with traditions that do things differently than us. We will promote church-plant movements, not just one.

V. Our Open, Voluntary Movement

The Evangel Church Plant Network is an open, voluntary movement. It is World Impact’s approach to “birthing churches” and embracing those churches under the Urban Church Association. You keep your way of doing Church (distinctive, governance, polity, format, etc.) but you join the Evangel Network movement approach of church multiplication among the urban poor. We are committed to resourcing the Great Commission by equipping leaders and empowering movements. We help you and your planters to plant churches among the urban poor. The Evangel Network allows us to know who “are ours.”

VI. Our Mission

We are committed to facilitating church planting movements by evangelizing, equipping, and empowering America’s unchurched urban poor.
