From Planting Corn to Planting Churches – Cultivating the “Back 40” S4 EP#124
Written by on July 18, 2023
In this episode, Kurt Busenitz talks about his struggle with the tension of legacy he felt when he left farming to plant churches. With a lack of vibrant, gospel-preaching churches in many rural communities in America, Kurt and Deana, with RHMA, have identified towns in need of a church plant and seek to establish a church there. Tune in to hear Kurt’s inspiring story and learn more about the importance of planting churches in underserved and mostly rural communities.
RHMA seeks to impact 40 unreached rural communities in the next 10 years by planning gospel proclaiming, Bible teaching, community engaging, and dynamically reproducing churches. This initiative is called “The Back 40 Unreached Initiative.”
In farming, the back 40 is the remote part of a farm or inaccessible part of any place, an uncultivated or undeveloped piece of land of indefinite size. Learn how you can pray for RHMA’s “Back 40 Unreached Initiative.”
