OUR PARTNER CHURCHES
Saturate Austin Network is made up of churches across Greater Austin, united around a shared vision, shared doctrine, and a common commitment to plant and multiply. Here's who's already in the movement and what it looks like to join them.
BECOMING A PARTNER
-
Every partner church works together to plant healthy, reproducing churches across Greater Austin, for the sake of reaching every man, woman, and child with the gospel. Each church holds a financial and strategic plan to actively participate in gospel saturation and church planting.
-
Partner churches hold to a shared theological framework, with unity on primary doctrines and room for diversity on non-essentials, including a common ecclesiology: Christ as the ultimate Shepherd, governance by a plurality of biblically qualified male elders, and a converted membership.
-
Partnership means staying connected: the monthly pastor's lunch, the annual elder meeting, and the annual pastor's retreat. It also means working out conflict in God-honoring ways, staying unified in heart and humble in spirit.
-
Partner churches give 1% of their annual budget to support the network, and set aside at least 2% internally toward church planting.
-
Partner churches collaborate with the network's board and leadership team while still owning their own church-planting and disciple-making. The leadership team's role is to equip, coach, support, and guide.
