How does the church planter know when his or her job is done? When should the church be considered "planted"? At what point does the church planter move on and entrust the church fully to the local leaders? The achievement of short-term goals can be used as an indicator that the church might be considered "planted", but the church also needs long-term goals.   In this section of the lecture Graig Ott: 

- explains what  the short and long term goals in church planting are;

- talks about three self definition of indigenous churches; 

- looks at contexts of church planting and examines four different kinds of situations in which churches are planted; 

- raises the question, "How many churches does a city need?" and shares his experience of church planting in Munich; 

- gives some recommendations on  how to relate to other churches in the area.
