With its roots in Gaithersburg, Maryland, Sovereign Grace Church was initially known as People of Destiny International. Since that time in 1982, the ministry boasts more than 70 Sovereign Grace churches with partnerships in 21 countries. Sovereign Grace Ministries nurtures growth for all communities by providing neighborhoods with a safe places to preach and to worship. Sovereign Grace Ministries helps with partnerships among pastors worldwide with an emphasis on church planting, and provides music, books, and various other materials to the public with their online store. The ministry's goal mentions a goal of spreading the word of Jesus Christ properly, which to them starts with an emphasis on church planting. Church planting takes place when a pastor produces a Sovereign Grace Church in a new area. In order to produce and foster a effective church, every pastor must take part in a training program to make sure that the church will thrive for many years to come. Pastors that are interested in planting a church are able to fill out a profile with the ministry, which will be assessed by the elders within the church. As soon as the application passes the preliminary acceptance phase, the pastor is placed in a training program. This 10-month Pastors' College helps prepare the pastor for the launch of his planted church. Sovereign Grace plants churches in various areas throughout the United States, Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America. Every year, the ministry hosts numerous unique events geared at Christian worshipers. One of the most important is the WorshipGod conference that is held biannually. Participants discuss the theology, practice, and happiness of God-honoring prayer while spreading the word of Jesus Christ. In 2013, for the first time ever Sovereign Grace Ministries is hosting its WorshipGod conference on both the East and West coasts. The conference will focus on the concept of loyalty, with a certain message for the prayer team of a church. Due to the fact that a worship team works week in and week out, frequently without the thanks of a congregation, the conference is created to urge and influence them. Newer Sovereign Grace Ministries pastors are welcomed to the annual Pastors' Conference where they can much better understand the ministry's mission and values. These events are tailored toward getting the word out about church planting. By holding these festivals and conferences in various cities each year, brand-new pastors in the location might become interested in applying for the program to develop and plant a church in an area that needs one. The ministry does not stop there. They also have a store that individuals can buy anything from music to reading materials and other church resources. The Sovereign Grace music section provides users with a big option of spiritual music from different artists, and is even offered in other languages. Reading materials available from the store cover a wide range of topics like marriage and self-improvement. The reading product is ideal for specific reading, or can be talked about with youth and adult church groups. So whether you're trying to find something to better understand your marital relationship or if you're leading a bible study hall, many of the books in the Sovereign Grace Ministries' store are a ideal fit. advertiser
