Hope For Churches RE Scope Sequence
RE is a movement of God’s leadership seeking to strengthen God’s Church and
transform a community through the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. RE is not
a manual for church revitalization, but a journey to help you fulfill your calling as
pastor leading an at-risk church toward a hopeful future.
RE creates the right conversations for revitalization pastors and replanters to focus on elements essential to
strengthening the church by examining Biblical truth and wisdom from others before applying them to any
context.

WISDOM -The Pastor’s Learning Path utilizes the strengths of individual study, peer
interaction, and pastoral mentoring helping each participant as learner and leader.
Pastors will complete one essential element per month in preparation to gather with
5-7 other revitalization pastors and replanters for an interactive, regional cohort. Guided by a
trained facilitator, participants will be challenged to grow as leaders, lead their congregations toward
greater strength, and apply Biblical truths to their unique context.
Each pastor will also meet with a pastoral mentor of his choosing during the entire process.
CONTEXT – Church Implementation Process
As pastors are developed, the leadership and members of the congregation will also be engaged as a
church implements God’s unique vision to ADVANCE the gospel starting in their community. There is also
an optional consultation process to help guide leadership through implementation God’s unique vision in
the community.
