This week, the CSBC team has been gathered at the Champions Retreat celebrating the church planters, sending churches, and faithful ministry champions who are helping reach California for Christ. In honor of that important work, we’re re-releasing a previous conversation between Jason Robertson, Sarah Graham, and special guest Will Browning exploring the difference between a church planter and a replanter.

Whether you’ve sensed a call toward church planting, revitalization, or simply want a better understanding of how God is expanding ministry across our state, this episode offers practical insight, encouragement, and a helpful look into two unique callings that are making a Gospel impact in California communities.

Fresh off the Cooperative Program Summit in Dallas, Pete Ramirez unpacks what Southern Baptists are actually thinking about CP, and what it means for the road ahead. A new, in-depth survey reveals that most of our churches still believe in the mission, even as economic strain reshapes giving patterns. Through it all, the Cooperative Program continues to stand as a powerful testimony of what happens when churches choose partnership as a valid kingdom approach.
