"This Gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed to all people as a testimony to all nations and then the end will come." - Matthew 24:14​

"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age." - Matthew 28:18-20



WE VALUE...



PERSEVERANCE



in the transforming hope and mission of God.



PROCLAMATION



of the Gospel leads the work.



PRIESTHOOD



of every believer. We live it and give it away.



POSTURE



of a servant for God and one another.





WHAT WE DO



Movement Network is committed to make disciples who make disciples, and multiply sustaining churches and networks among the lost together.


We use simple, Biblical, reproducing principles, pathways, and tools to cut through the challenges of the culture and context. We capitalize on the collective experience of this network of people to identify best practices, overcome obstacles, and spur one another on.




CURRENT OBJECTIVE

4TH GEN DISCIPLES

and CHURCHES in

11 CITIES BY 2025 ​





TOGETHER



A DECENTRALIZED NETWORK OF DISCIPLES, CHURCHES, AND LEADERS



We are a dispersed community of God's people committed to one another and God's mission together.


We voluntarily, mutually submit to one another.


We cross-pollinate disciples and leaders to love one another, spur each other on, hold each other accountable, identify best practices, overcome barriers, and attack the Gospel gaps.


We generously share relational and material resources.


We intentionally colabor for a common vision.





LEADERSHIP



A DECENTRALIZED
AUTONOMOUS NETWORK



We believe Jesus is the High Priest (Hebrews 3:1), chief Apostle (Hebrews 3:1), head of the church (Colossians 1:18), and chief Shepherd (1 Peter 5:4). He is over all.


We value and protect the priesthood of all believers so that we will proclaim the excellencies of him who called us out of darkness into his marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9-10).


We appoint and develop elders to watch over and be an example for the local church (1 Peter 5:2) through the stewardship of healthy church, holding firm to Scripture, and encouraging every disciple to obey Jesus (Titus 1:7, 9).


Each church is autonomous under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, but we voluntarily submit to one another. Apostolic missionaries and church elders work together to multiply and sustain disciples.





STRATEGY



DEVELOP LEADERS
FROM LOST TO LAUNCH



Jesus modeled His process for Kingdom growth that the disciples followed. A farmer goes to an empty field and scatters seed all over the field. There’s nothing he can do to cause the seed to sprout, but once it does, he nurtures the new growth. When the harvest is ready, he gathers the crop together. Then he takes some of the seed from that harvest to sow in other empty fields. Much like the farmer, Jesus showed his disciples how to go to people who had not heard, share the Gospel, teach new disciples to obey His commands, bring them together to be church, and develop leaders to keep the process going.


We are striving for local ownership of this core missionary task. For God’s vision to be reality in every people group and place, we must equip, care for, and release every follower of Jesus to obey Matthew 28:18-20 with simple tools and reproducing processes, starting right here at home.



HISTORY



THE BIRTH OF A VISION



In 2009 a handful of disciples and missionaries in Houston and London began to collaborate for God's glory to multiply through simple, reproducible Kingdom principles and practices. A conviction to bring the Gospel to the lost of these cities drove the partnership. In 2015 the experience and learning through this collaboration resulted in Movement Church - a simple church in Friendswood, TX with a vision to multiply well beyond their resources or influence. From 2015-2019 this network of disciples shared the Gospel with thousands of people in Houston and beyond, baptized a few hundred new disciples, and multiplied simple churches to the third generation.


The historical influence of Houston's oil & gas and space industries on the global market have created roads that stretch around the world through medicine, aerospace, energy, investment, sports, technology, shipping, and more. Recognizing the opportunity these roads provide for the expansion of the Gospel and following the fruit of what God was doing, Movement Network began to expand beyond Houston in 2019 to serve the kingdom multiplication happening in other cities through Movement Network and the No Place Left coalition.


Today we continue to iterate and evolve as we look to the next gaps to take the Gospel and play our part in the completion of the Great Commission in our generation.





A BRANCH OF THE
NO PLACE LEFT FAMILY



We are a part of the global No Place Left coalition.


No Place Left is a movement of movements aimed at getting to no place left where Christ is not made known in our generation. We do this with every people group, ethnicity, & segment among the lost until there is no place left (Romans 15:23).​
