How to Multiply Your Church: November 12, 2020
As the U.S. population continues to grow, can the local church keep up? Ralph Moore believes it can by multiplying and strategically planting new churches that, in turn, plant new churches. Ralph is the founding pastor of Hope Chapel in Hermosa Beach, California, and Hope Chapel in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii. Beginning with just 12 people in 1971, this ministry now spans more than 700 churches worldwide. In this session of EquippingU, he will show why multiplication is the key to growing God’s Kingdom and offer proven methods for implementing multiplication in your community. Join us for this LIVE online webinar and multiply your church! Register at EquippingU.org.

REGIONAL NEWS
Alliance Theological Seminary (ATS)
While on-campus courses have been taught for more than 60 years, within the last decade we have been building a robust roster of online classes as well. Considering the restrictions on travel, online courses at Alliance Theological Seminary (ATS) offer a convenient solution to earning a degree—whether prospective seminarians live across our nation or around the world. In addition to being convenient and undisruptive to the demands of other obligations, ATS degree programs are affordable. In fact, they are currently offering a 50% tuition discount to any good-standing member or licensed worker at an Alliance church! This discount can be applied to most of their master’s/bachelor’s programs and many degrees can be completed fully online. Begin your application today!
