14 Being Part of Two Churches

The "rabbit" model of church planting prioritizes rapid, decentralized multiplication by requiring every member to be connected to two spiritual communities simultaneously. A primary spiritual family serves as the individual's permanent home, while their secondary involvement focuses on "modeling and assisting" the birth of a new church rather than merely adding members to an existing one. This intensive three-month assistance phase transitions into a less demanding "watch" phase once the new church begins reproducing its own subsequent generations. By refusing to absorb new believers or interested Christians into established groups, the model ensures that one church can birth multiple others concurrently. This strategy aims for a three-month reproduction cycle, leveraging high-intensity mentorship and immediate mobilization to achieve exponential growth across multiple spiritual generations.
