Cautions for the Church Planter

What kinds of temptations arise in church planting, especially for the church planter?

I appreciated the thoughts from Eric Davis in his article, Cautions for Church Planters, which is actually an introduction to a series of articles focusing on the topic.

Here are some of the cautions he gives:

• A temptation towards, and permission of, pragmatism (in other words, whatever "works" (especially if it works quickly) is all right)
• A dangerous de-emphasis of sanctification (focus on reaching out, to the detriment of inward holiness)
• A de-emphasis of the Sunday gathering and expository preaching
• Church-planting is easily hijacked as a means to prove oneself in ministry (a perfect place for pride to flourish (at least for a time!))

Check out the full article and see what you think.  See the list of other posts by Eric Davis to read his further thoughts on each danger.
