Interview with Brian Knorr

Pastor of Mountaintop Family Center

Church planter assesment fo the A/G in the Penn/Del district (Tom Rees):
Past performance is the best indicator of future performance.


When planting a church, design the church based on the demographics of the area. Know who the influencers are and remember, people are people and be careful what you say. The focus of the church is outside the church. "Come in and get answers then go out and do good work."

We did some speed-stacking of cups. it was rally fun. He ues it as an outreach to get into schools and to get people into the churches.

Most churches keep their pastors so busy with the people inside the church that the pator can rarely if ever reach or even speak to unsaved people.

"If I have to offend someone, I will always offend the churched person over the unchurched person." Mature Christians should be mature enough to handle things.
He said about the way he does church that it is very untraditional in a traditional area. I'm not sure how that agrees with the idea of designing the church as per the demographics of the area. I guess being untraditional in a highly traditional area does not count.

He wants to have a cafe setting in the back that is very comfortable for guests because he believes that it is better for someone to sit in the back of a church for a month than for them to come once an hopefully get saved because the church is not welcoming to guests.
He calls his dog satan, and he says he'd like to see it dead. Dog hater! Jerkface!
