A microchurch is not a glorified small group, a Bible study, or a feeder program for Sunday morning; it is the church in miniature, fully competent to worship, nurture community, and execute mission. Drawing on years of field deployment, Wegner reclaims the biblical validity of small, relationally tethered communities that meet in homes, workplaces, and community spaces. A reader learns to validate, release, and resource microchurches with full ecclesial authority without requiring professional clergy oversight.
Rob Wegner is one of the most networked figures in the contemporary North American microchurch and church-multiplication conversation. For roughly **a quarter-century at Granger Community Church** in northern Indiana — under founding pastor Mark Beeson — he served as **Teaching Pastor / Pastor of Life Mission**, with a brief from the senior team to "call the people of God to get out of their seat and into the Story" (per [robwegner.org/about](https://robwegner.org/about/)). During that period he co-led EnterMission, partnered with **Alan Hirsch** to start the **Future Travelers** coaching program for megachurches becoming missional movements, co-authored *Missional Moves* (Zondervan, 2012) with Granger colleague Jack Magruder, and went to India repeatedly with his wife **Michelle Wegner** and their three daughters to document a Granger-seeded grassroots church-planting movement that grew to over 120,000 disciples in 950+ churches across southern India. That India experience reshaped his ecclesial vision and produced *Share the Well*, the photo-essay book he and Michelle co-authored.
