Dino Rizzo, ARC Churches Co-Founder, Announces Recent Interview with Brainz Magazine


Dino Rizzo, the co-founder and executive director of ARC (Association of Related Churches), is excited to announce that he was featured in a recent story for Brainz Magazine.

Dino Rizzo, who has more than 35 years of ministry experience and co-founded Healing Place Church with his wife DeLynn, shared with Brainz Magazine insights on ARC churches and his vision for church planting.

As part of the interview, Rizzo pointed out that 20 years ago, when ARC (Association of Related Churches) began, he wasn’t aware of other church planting organizations, making this an important place to start. Since that time, the organization has helped launch more than 1,000 churches.

The goal of the organization, Rizzo said, is to create relationships with ARC church-planting couples and their teams so they can thrive and spread the word of Jesus to members of the community.

He also said that ARC church planting success depends on the hard work, culture, leadership, and connection with people that leaders are able to establish. Dino Rizzo also said, though, that there’s a “God factor” that’s part of success. He told Brainz Magazine that God sends unique waves and that “we need to pay attention to our own wave instead of comparing it to others.”

In addition to discussing his vision for ARC churches, Rizzo discussed his passion for serving. That passion, he said, comes from the fact that he was reached through outreach, to begin with. If he didn’t experience that, he never would’ve started a church on his own.

As Dino Rizzo explained:

“Outreach is about noticing a need, pain or suffering and coming alongside to side. We want to empower church leaders to realize there are people around them waiting for someone to be the hands and feet of Jesus. It doesn’t take a lot of money or resources to make a difference.”

Other topics that Rizzo discussed in his Brainz Magazine interview were some of the major challenges he’s seeing this ARC church planting season and the one piece of advice he’d give young church leaders.
