We are excited to announce the relaunch of NewChurches.com, now powered by Send Network. Send Network is behind NewChurches.com and we are excited to provide free resources from church planting experts across the evangelical landscape who offer new insights and best practices on how to plant and multiply churches. As churches produce disciples, it's natural for those disciples to multiply themselves but it's also natural for new churches to form where there are new disciples being made. Another way of saying it... Churches make disciples and disciples make churches.
