Church Planting
Taking the Gospel to Our City
Currently, demographers say that nearly 150 people per day move to Austin. That means every year a new “city” of about 50,000 people come into greater Austin looking for jobs, homes, schools, and friends. The question we face is, “When they come to our city, will they find Jesus?” Will they find a faith community where they can experience the life and love and purpose we find in the gospel? Simply put, will there be enough churches to reach them all?
We believe that Jesus has given us the mandate to saturate our “Jerusalem” with the love and Good News of Jesus (Acts 1:8). Therefore, we work to plant church planting churches that at their core make disciples who make disciples.
This requires a two-pronged strategy. First, we will work to raise up church planters from within the congregation of Hill Country Bible Church. You can check out the overview of our development pathway here.
As a part of our internal equipping, we train leaders biblically, theologically, and practically - see more information here.
And we are looking for planters to come to Austin to apply for our two-year residency. Is that you? Have you heard the Holy Spirit calling you to church planting and to do that in Austin? If so, we want to hear from you. Please reach out to us by sending an email to [email protected]. Please include a current resume and cover letter that describes your call to planting and your interest in Austin.
