In this episode of Church Planters Ask, hosts Chris Highfill and Danny Parmelee explore practical strategies for connecting in a new community—or even reconnecting in one you’ve lived in for years. Drawing from personal experiences and proven methods, they discuss five essential steps for church planters:
- Pray Strategically – Prayer is foundational. Chris shares how prayer walks and intentional team prayers can spiritually prepare your launch and align your focus on the community’s needs.
- Enter as a Learner – Approach the community with curiosity and humility. Chris emphasizes joining groups like the Chamber of Commerce to build natural connections and gather insights.
- Serve with Purpose – Meet tangible needs without reinventing the wheel. Partner with existing organizations to make an immediate, meaningful impact.
- Build Friendships – Invest time in genuine relationships by showing up consistently, listening well, and being present in community spaces.
- Tell the Story – Only after building trust do you earn the right to share the transformative story of the gospel with authenticity and credibility.
