Welcome!

Welcome to our website! Inspired by the phrase "to build and to plant"  in Jeremiah 1:10, we created BuildPlant.org so we could freely share everything we've learned over the years about building and planting churches and home fellowships.

We first encountered the Vineyard movement way back in the early 80s. Much impacted by the teaching and example of John Wimber, we started home fellowships and began praying for the sick with some success. In the years that followed, we trained and provided oversight for ministry teams in several Vineyard churches and helped support new church plants.

We believe our calling is to help conserve, preserve and protect the teachings and practices that the Lord has given his Church through John and Carol Wimber. Our simple premise, which we learned from John, is that to effectively grow the church one should focus on advancing the kingdom of God the way that Jesus and his first disciples did. Our series of Simple Kingdom books and the worship songs we've written were inspired by John's teaching and the  music of the early Vineyard Movement.

We hope you find our free resources helpful for growing your fellowships! For more info on who we are, see About Us. And for thought-provoking teaching and the latest on what's new on our site, be sure to check out our Blog.
