In this main stage message from the 2025 Rooted Conference, Chelten Carter walks through Acts 11:19–30 and 13:1–3 to reveal how God multiplies His Church. He emphasizes that multiplication is inevitable because persecution cannot stop it, people will be perplexed by it, and God’s power is displayed through it. This message encourages leaders to trust God’s unstoppable work as He continues to grow His Church in both expected and unexpected ways.

Chelten currently serves Progressive Baptist Church on the South Side of Chicago as the Director of Discipleship for the Youth and as a minister to the church at-large. A life-long learner, Chelten received his Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Indiana University and continued to complete his Master of Divinity from Moody Theological Seminary. Chelten is married to his beautiful and brilliant bride Emmanuella Carter of 8 years and loves to play basketball and read.
