Women and Multiplication Movements

Mission's Edge Roundtable September 2021 Session:

Women are planting churches and making disciples through church planting and disciple making movements all around the world!

How are women planting churches and making disciples?
Is the experience of women the same as men in those movements?
If the role of women in movements is different, then how is it different?

In this webinar, we will look at several case studies that examine the role of women in diverse and varied cultural and church planting contexts around the world. We will look at the catalytic roles, leadership roles, and spiritual formation processes that are unique to women in each context to see what we can learn.

This discussion is based around one chapter in an exciting new book being published by the Motus Dei network. We will give you an overview of some of the other exciting articles and cutting-edge research in this new book as well.
