[A new Experience of Church!? An Empirical Study about the Church Planting Movement International Christian Fellowship in Germany]
A new experience of church – that is what the church planting movement 'International Christian Fellowship' (ICF) promises. Its churches offer a mixture of conservative content and progressive design that resonates especially with young people. The study examines ICF in Germany, using qualitative and quantitative research methods. It answers questions concerning the profile, the form, and the actions of ICF and provides empirical evidence about the people who are a part of ICF, and their motivation to join an ICF church. In addition, the study shows how ICF churches integrate in the existing landscape of churches, and which factors influence the dynamic between them and other churches in the region.
