Following the ideas of effective field theories, we derive classically effective field equations of recently developed Lorentz gauge theory of gravity. It is shown that Newton's gravitational constant emerges as an effective coupling parameter if an extremely small length is integrated out of the underlying theory. The linear version of the effective theory is shown to be fully consistent with the Newtonian gravity. We also derive a numerical solution for the interior of a star and show that in the non-linear regions, the behavior of the effective theory deviates from the predictions of general relativity.
