Baptist Church Planting Ministry is a global, 503(c)(3), non-profit ministry started in 1993. The specific history of our ministry is available on our website. Dr. Earl Jessup is the Founder of BCPM. Our philosophy is that local churches reproduce churches. With forty years of experience for me, and the help of many local churches, our staff has had the opportunity to help plant over 120 churches in these many years. We praise the Lord for this and give Him the glory for allowing us the opportunity to do so. As we near almost two decades of ministry, we have had a global impact in church planting for God’s glory. This is evidenced by realizing the thousands of people who have come to know Christ as their Saviour and also the hundreds of thousands of dollars given to missions within these churches.
