Episode 212: Carl Kuhl makes deciding where to plant simple

Planting a church isn't easy. There are so many factors to consider, like where you'll plant the church and how to support the community you'll serve.Carl Kuhl knows a thing or two about that experience, and I'm glad to have him on the podcast this week to share his insights. He's a pastor, a church planter, and an incredible leader with a fascinating perspective on leading a church.Not only do we dig into the ins and outs of church planting, but I also had the chance to talk with Carl about his new book Blood Stained Pews and the life change that can happen when people in the church are less afraid to be honest about their struggles.Special thanks to Stadia Church Planting for sponsoring this episode!HighlightsAbout Carl - 1:56Carl’s start in ministry.The benefits of growing up in a healthy church.How the seed was planted in Carl to start planting churches.Planting Mosaic Christian Church - 16:32How Carl landed on Baltimore as the location to plant Mosaic.Learning the culture of the area.The toughest thing about being a lead pastorBlood Stained Pews - 25:00The story behind the blood stained pewsWhy Carl chose to write this book.The value of vulnerability and what it means for us to go first.ResourcesEpisode TranscriptConnect with CarlInstagramFacebookTwitterCarl’s WebsiteMosaic Christian ChurchBlood Stained Pews: How Vulnerability Transforms a Broken Church into a Church for the Broken by Carl Kuhl
