"I
was raised on a farm in Mulvane, Kansas. My favorite time of the year
has always been wheat harvest. Watching the combines in large fields
cut the amber waves of grain is an awesome sight. No longer do I look
at the harvest in the same way. I now see the unchurched thousands
that God wants to reach with the message of His love and transformational
power." From a paper written
by Lead Pastor Bryson Butts of GracePoint Church in Wichita, KS –
before the church even had a name.
Bryson and Susan Butts knew nothing about how to plant a church.
All they knew was that they were called. Read how they learned what
they needed to know to get their new church off to a fast start.


We've all been told that you can't get
big returns without taking big risks. GracePoint Church in Wichita,
KS is not afraid to take risks –
from an uncommon meeting place to an uncouth billboard –
and they've paid off. See how their unconventional methods have gotten
them into the hearts of the unchurched... and into hot water with
church people!
