Field Preachers: A Church Planting Podcast - Episode 32

By Rachel Gilmore

These are uncertain and difficult times. How can we find entrepreneurial revenue streams as church planters that are both missional and monetized? Join us for an interview with Dr. Jay Moon, a professor of Church Planting and Evangelism and the director of the Office of Faith, Work, and Economics at Asbury Theological Seminary to hear more about his insights into entrepreneurial church planting.

In March of 1739, John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, engaged in "field preaching" for the first time after being encouraged by his friend and fellow preacher George Whitefield. Instead of preaching his sermon from a pulpit, Wesley went out from the church and preached in the open air to those who didn't have the time or money to sit in a pew and hear the good news. Thousands of people, mainly those struggling with poverty, came to hear him preach that first week and the revival of Methodism was born as the good news became real in the hearts of those who heard about God's love and grace.

Church planters are modern day "field preachers" who go out from the established church into the community where they proclaim good news to those who need it most. This podcast is a series of interviews and stories from modern-day Methodist field preachers who will make you laugh, cry, and think more deeply about how and where we are called to share God's love and grace.

Rachel Gilmore is the former Director of Recruiting, Assessing & Training for Church Planting with Path 1. She stays away from foliage but loves to plant other things like churches, preschools, and ideas in the minds of those looking for innovation and inspiration in the church.
