2) Adapting a Kingdom Vision for 21st Century Realities. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save. What was lost. Luke 19:10. Was there another way? Could God's Kingdom expand through our church community with a greater possibility of thriving? Multi-site churches are not technically new, but the movement has grown in the last ten years. Hundreds of churches in America have adapted to become churches that are united in purpose with different segments of the congregation meeting in different locati...

7) Why Multi-Site Is A Biblical Model. Multi-site churches have been effective. They are not without problems, sometimes caused by an overly aggressive strategy or a merely pragmatic approach to church leadership. It is certainly proper to ask: is this approach even valid for Biblical Christians? Is there at least a hint of doing church this way in the New Testament? Shouldn't churches stay together? Imagine a network of churches: six of them have three sites each, two are regional campuses, one has ten ...

Advent begins on Sunday. For a simple list of Advent daily scripture readings, check out this index. Daily reflections will help turn December from a madhouse rush of shopping and planning into a more peaceful and preparatory time. Advent is meant to be a time to pause, to wait for Jesus. Silicon Valley life nearly obliterates that important aspect. Fight it! Fight it well using God's own words. Links to this post. And so, it is very encouraging to know that God’s mercy is new every day! So, you can wake...

We should never forget. Saturday's Catalyst Meeting was great. A key part of Saturday's gathering was putting lots of ideas out for discussion. Toward the end, small groups summarized the dozens of concepts into a simple question: "As we prepare, we should never forget.". With busy Silicon Valley lives, it's easy to forget all of the things that we said we shouldn't. As we head toward becoming a multi-site church, we should never forget:. Our values and identity. Worshiping God leading to our mission.

Gospel@SiliconValley: Church Membership is a Key Path of Discipleship
http://drewfield.blogspot.com/2010/11/church-membership-is-key-path-of.html
Church Membership is a Key Path of Discipleship. A powerful aspect of discipleship is commitment to a local church body. The New Testament churches were filled with people who deliberately joined their midst. Those committed Christians were overseen by equally committed local leaders (pastors/ teachers/ elders/ shepherds). This Sunday, a great group of people will publicly commit to vows of church membership. They are revolutionaries of committed grace-filled relationships. Rare Sunshine - Luke Brodine.

Last week was a great week for forward momentum on multi-site. I spent Thursday researching the lastest approaches to multi-site churches. Well over 1,000 churches in America are multi-site = one church meeting in multiple locations. It is inspiring to see the variety of ways that churches creatively bring their church into their context. A few important lessons from other churches:. A church cannot just 'have multi sites.' Rather, it has to become a 'multi-site church.' Everything changes: the D...More ...
