Acts 29 is distinct in being a church planting network rather than a denomination, uniting autonomous churches around Reformed theology and an assessment based model of planting.
Acts 29 was founded in 1998 by Mark Driscoll and David Midwood and takes its name from the book of Acts, which has twenty eight chapters. Churches in the network remain autonomous and keep their own denominational or independent ties while submitting to the network's theological distinctives and planter assessment. The network is now international, with churches organized in regions and language networks.
