A hometown has its own social ecosystem. A hometown has a common culture and values. People are proud of their hometown. In a hometown, all the kids go to the same high school.

Hometowns are often neglected by church planting movements that focus on large urban/suburban areas. Hometowns have historically been served by mainline and denominational churches which are in steep decline due to the lack of a transformative mission and message. The evangelism growth rate in hometowns is usually negligible. The demographic of church attenders in hometowns is aging, leaving behind young families and young adults. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646096652840-97QWMJFJKMUA46VTBUWO/Paul+Smith.jpeg Why We Exist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646097004392-HV08F2TFZ5MROX6NBHP6/Philip+Thurman.jpeg Why We Exist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646097910350-AW4M7VPBDUDGF71JT2O7/RCC+Marianna.jpeg Why We Exist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646098125977-QWZM7YC7ZZF4SNOQQLOS/DSC00701.jpg Why We Exist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646098404781-CKYNZEBSB7THY202WY3E/Rally+Church.jpeg Why We Exist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1649166286943-K7XGXHRUWZ8X47CV2T56/Home+Church+1.jpeg Why We Exist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1653580674365-ZK6RRJ6EXRNGQPXV4VGJ/Brian+Pipping.jpg Why We Exist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1654546258704-AJILWWL2OLQI9JOMKAKZ/Erica+Davis.jpg Why We Exist https://www.hometownnetwork.online/home daily 1.0 2022-05-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/82c24d7a-8010-4152-8d1b-9ef155e4f2d9/Logo+Vertical+Blue+2-01.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.hometownnetwork.online/who daily 0.75 2022-05-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/bd4b93ef-214e-4209-b753-58b806337d0e/unsplash-image-KdeqA3aTnBY.jpg Who We Help Why Partnership Really Matters Progress in mission doesn’t happen without intentionality, stewardship, and improvement. The combination of those three elements positions our church planters and partner churches to be most effective in their mission. We believe partnership is the fuel that helps us go further and faster. Gospel advancement for planters and churches takes work. Our commitment to the biblical essentials and strategies proven over time positions our partners to benefit from the effort they are extending. https://www.hometownnetwork.online/how-we-work daily 0.75 2022-05-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646171393495-YY1FYA41R0DQ6OBMNKWW/Icon+-+Globe+with+People.png How We Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646171603402-W67GWGHUSM8Z6N5FNG90/Icon+-+Globe+Heart+Hand.png How We Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646171820401-1CY5TQFO772YZUSJJBT4/Icon+-+Globe+Location.png How We Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646172321650-O3XB62TTV7UJHHVJR100/Icon+-+Recruitment.png How We Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646172775577-YEMP4YOALUQJXQLR8ZF3/Icon+-+Training.png How We Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646175159789-XJZG9YYH4KT1CS6PFTVA/Icon+-+Evaluate.png How We Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646175188704-BEP0AGXFPWZUMLW7WOEC/Icon+-+Advise.png How We Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646175200561-DVWCHBTQ8PV5DQXOLCV8/Icon+-+Facilitate.png How We Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6202a2c1e6d83239e2ce9262/1646175517962-407I54GPFCMU86VBR56Y/Icon+-+Arrows+Out+2.png How We Work https://www.hometownnetwork.online/getinvolved daily 0.75 2022-05-26 https://www.hometownnetwork.online/contact-us daily 0.75 2025-05-12
