| Summary: | This paper made a case for the use of co-operative mission approach to plant churches. The paper was curved through observations and concerns of Independent Pentecostal Churches in Ghana of their inability to plant daughter churches due to lack of fund for mission and church planting. The paper made a proposal for the use of nnoboa mission concept. A concept developed from cooperative farming which thrives through trust, communality and reciprocity. Nnoboa in Akan communities in Ghana is similar to Ubuntu concept in Southern African communities. The paper argues that the church (body of Christ) is endowed with spiritual, physical, material and social capital that when brought together cooperatively can help Independent Pentecostal Churches to achieve their missional agenda. Even though the paper is a proposal for Independent Pentecostal Churches in Ghana, its implementation can be used by churches in other parts of the world that are struggling with funding for mission and church planting. |
