The Evangel Dean Basic Training Resource Handbook

26 • T HE E VANGEL D EAN B ASIC T RAINING R ESOURCE H ANDBOOK

H. Evangel operates with an affirmation of spiritual enemies and their persistent interference to the church planting efforts , and assumes that no ministry can operate without both understanding of the devil’s tactics, and application of God’s resources to counteract and overcome his machinations. I. Evangel relies on God’s ability to identify, equip, and deploy godly indigenous leaders who will lead church planting movements that complete the task of winning and discipling indigenous peoples, in their own context, under their own authority, and through the ongoing direction of the Holy Spirit.
