Planting the Word: Book Launch Celebration
Join us for a special community event as Dr. Erin Crider, director of church planting at Gordon‑Conwell Theological Seminary, launches her new book, Planting the Word: A Missional Ecclesiology for the Twenty‑First Century. This gathering will bring together church planters, pastors, students, and alumni for an evening of encouragement, connection, and shared vision for the future of the Church.
Dr. Crider’s book offers a fresh and deeply researched contribution to the field of church planting—bridging academic insight with practical, missional application. Whether you are actively planting, preparing for ministry, or simply passionate about the Church’s mission, this event is designed to inspire and equip.
The celebration will include an introduction to the book, testimonials, reflections from Dr. Crider, time for Q&A, and space for relational networking within the Gordon‑Conwell community.
