MULTI-SITE EXPOSED II


Today was my second and final day at the MULTI-SITE EXPOSED conference in Chicago. Great time.
One of the great quotes of the day was from Darrin Patrick, pastor of JOURNEY CHURCH in St. Louis: "Plans are good; but plans aren't GOD."
Here's a short download of the day:
A couple of the "PROS" about multi-site campuses are ... The neighborhood people will have their curiosity piqued and likely come to your multi-site if it is close to them. And when you only have ONE site, only the 'rock stars' get to be onstage. Having multi-site campuses releases openings for other volunteers with gifts to be used.
Multi-site is never about your building being FULL -- it is about your MISSION - your DNA. We're not just after a PREACHING center, we're an OUTREACH center.
The SEVEN MOVES to multi-site by Pastor Dave Ferguson were:
1 - Is it a GOD THING?
2 - Do you have a VISION to do it?
3 - Who is your multi-site campus LEADER?
4 - Who is your multi-site TEAM? (worship - tech - children's ministries - other volunteers)
5 - What is the FINANCIAL plan?
6 - Is your vision ALIGNED? (1 vision - 1 budget - 1 staff - 1 eldership)
7 - Be UNSTOPPABLE!
Let's keep praying about how God wants KFA to be part of the multi-site vision.
And be blessed.
