Coaching for/Chat with Church Planters

I meet with a lot of church planters/potential church planters. It's usually something I enjoy a lot- It's not that I know everything about this gig, but if someone is looking for insight into how we've done what we have, the mistakes/lessons we've learned, some encouragement along the way... well, I've got that. 

One thing I'm looking to do is more intentional coaching with local church planters- I've got some things happening there, but as a supplement, I'm wanting to offer some time to anyone who wants it. I'm making two slots a month available- one is a one-on-one iChat (or Skype if we absolutely have to) with any church planter who's somewhere between core group and year three of their plant. All I want to know is that you've started gathering some folks/have some kind of plan in place- even if the details are very vague. In other words, I'm not looking to talk to folks who might maybe someday be thinking about praying about planting a church. Yeah?

The other time is a video chat on Shapevine.com in one of their Video Chat rooms (room 2 if its available, room 3 if it's not). This one would be me and two church planters who are anywhere along the process just talking church planting- peer coaching if you will. The nice thing with that one is that while there's just the three video slots, any number of people can join in via text/chat...

I'm opening up July/August/Sep now, so if you think this might be interesting to you, grab a slot...

Bob,
I would be interested in talking with you sometime either by chat or by email. I'm in the midst of building my launch team for our church plant. (We'll probably launch publicly later this year, early next.) We've been working through the United Methodist Leadership Incubator course which helps develop an individual ministry action plan and development of ministry. But would love some contact with other planters. Drop me a line if you think this would be possible. My address is [email protected]. Thanks so much...love your blog.
John
