The Building Decisions That Cost Churches the Most is a webinar presented in partnership with Master’s Plan Church Design and Construction, 2026 Visionary sponsor of The Church Network.
Every building project involves important decisions, but a few can significantly affect cost, ministry impact, and your church’s future. In this practical webinar, you’ll discover the five most common mistakes churches make before construction begins, along with actionable principles to help your team make wiser decisions about vision, budget, ministry design, and choosing the right building partners.

Speakers: Rodney James and Brandin Melton bring more than 55 years of combined ministry leadership and church consulting experience. Rodney served for 20 years as a church administrator and senior pastor, leading three major building projects before starting Master’s Plan Church Design & Construction. Brandin has served as a lead pastor, executive pastor, church revitalization consultant, and now Director of Church Partnerships for Master’s Plan. Together, they help churches make wise building decisions by combining practical construction experience with strategic ministry leadership.
