The BMFP Church Planters’ Conference is a natural outworking of our three principles of operation:

· Glorifying God by Enjoying Him Regardless.
· Fulfilling the Matrix of the Great Commission.
· Respecting the Authority and Autonomy of the Local Church.

THE VISION

The three principles spawn the vision for church planting and regulate why and how it is done. The unfulfilled Great Commission worldwide, the unglorified and unenjoyed God at home, and the disrespect for Christ’s headship in His churches compel a review and revival of these principles.
