About Peyton
I started in Huntington Beach at a megachurch, then went to Wales, and served as the evangelist at Lloyd-Jones’s church Sandfields, and started planting churches in public spaces, like Starbucks. Returning back to the States, I planted a multiplying church in downtown Long Beach. I founded New Breed Church Planting Network which continues to train front-line 1st century style apostolic church planters, and the rest is history.
I’ve served in collegiate campus churches, rural and urban churches, legacy churches, churches in public space…you name it. In a box, with a fox, I have planted Sam I am.
Some of the things I’ve done over the years that may help you:
- Wrote a few books: Church Plantology: The Art and Science of Planting Churches, Church Zero: Raising 1st Century Churches From the Ashes of the 21st Century Church, and Reaching The Unreached: Becoming Raiders of the Lost Art.
- Started two of the biggest church planting podcasts - Hardcore Church Planting and The Church Planter Podcast.
- Co-founded Church Planter Magazine.
- Hired by Mac Lake, I revamped the Send Network Training, and produced professional training videos.
- Oversaw church planter training for the Western U.S. for the Send Network.
- Stayed married all this time, and adopted two beautiful girls.
- Once swatted five with one blow on a video game no one plays anymore. It was epic. You shoulda seen it.
My goal in life is to expand your mind to think like believers in the 1st century did, and like church leaders in the Developing World, Western Europe, and Persecuted Church have to. That’s what drives me in the morning… I’d like to think it’s part-caffeine, and mostly Holy Spirit.”
