god watchers
In the classic book Experiencing God, Henry Blackaby
describes two different ways of planning:
1) Think up an idea and pray like crazy for God to bless it; or
2) Look where God is already blessing and join Him there.
This is an essential, biblical principle for ministry. Jesus
taught in John 5:19:
“
I’m telling you this straight.
The Son can’t independently do a thing,
only what he sees the Father doing.
What the Father does, the Son does.
THE MESSAGE
This is our approach at Church Doctor Ministries. We are
God watchers, and for almost 40 years, we have made
journeys all over the world where God is blessing the church.
For the last 12 years, Church Doctor Ministries has taken
church leaders from North America on powerful immersion
excursions, in England and the United States, so they can
see, feel, and become infected by the Spirit with the DNA of
mission and revival! This is Jesus’ approach — catch what
cannot be taught.
We invite you to join us as we explore where God is moving,
working, and blessing right here in North America!
Lakepointe church
LakePointe has grown from 0 to 1,000+ in worship in seven
years. This is a church reaching people many churches have
not reached.
In past years, LakePointe has had more baptisms than any of
the other 5,000 churches in the denomination, anywhere in the
U.S.
Your congregation will not likely become a clone of LakePointe. However, your exposure to this ministry will give you
transferrable insights and principles that can be incorporated
in any church. These are basic missional concepts played out
in real-life ministry.
The secularization of the U.S. has resulted in broken lives,
dysfunctional families, unhealthy lifestyles, and a great sense
of hopelessness. At LakePointe, you will see firsthand and
catch new paradigms for effective church and ministry.
pioneering ministries
We believe LakePointe Church is yet another expression of
the predicted revival that is already beginning in the U.S.
Church Doctor Ministries has partnered with LakePointe for an
Immersion Excursion: A learning experience in which this
cutting-edge philosophy of ministry can be taught and caught.
LakePointe is excellent at “doing church” in a sound, biblical
approach, yet translated for contemporary unchurched
Americans.

I’ve never seen worship that is an
experience like this.
I have never seen a church experience
this kind of growth. They are not collecting
Christians from other churches. They are
really reaching people most churches
don’t reach.
