We’ve created a new church planting template in our PlanterPlan app with you in mind. At its heart, it’s a checklist to help you work on the first things first and the last things last. Everyone’s timetables are different, so the bi-vo/co-vo PlanterPlan is based on checkpoints rather than deadlines.

Project Management vs Coaching

We believe in the value of Church Plant Project Management AND Coaching.  The Project Manager and Coach are two separate but equally important roles. In broad strokes:

Project Management

  • ensures you are establishing systems for a healthy launch of worship gatherings
  • focuses on the what, when, where & how
  • sets the agenda and connects with you every week
  • manages timelines
  • makes sure you document strategies
  • helps implement those strategies
  • offers tactical/execution experience

Coaching

  • ensures you are establishing healthy practices for the long haul
  • focuses primarily on the who & why
  • lets you set the agenda and connects with you monthly-ish
  • asks questions
  • challenges you
  • helps you make strategic decisions
  • offers feedback on strategy documents
  • offers leadership experience
