Church Planting Movement: How God is Redeeming a Lost World

Posted on July 1, 2004 by
July 1, 2004

Since Garrison published his booklet, Church Planting Movements, in 2000, missionaries have been longing for more information. If readers only expected an expanded version of the booklet, they will be disappointed.
