UK Church Planting Lessons for the Rest of Europe

Fresh Expressions began as a highly experimental attempt within the Church of England to answer the question, “what kind of churches should we be planting?”  Since then it has been adopted by other denominations in the UK and is currently being explored by State churches in other European nations. This session will ask, what are the main principles that undergird Fresh Expressions, what evidence is there for its effectiveness, why is it proving to be successful as an approach to church planting and what elements are transferrable to other situations in Europe?
