[Andy Rowell | Church Leadership Conversations] Andy Rowell | Church Leadership Conversations: Theological Reviews ...: I agree with Cindy Crosby, reviewer at "Christianity Today", who said, "Rather than slicing and dicing the novel, looking for proof of theological missteps, a better approach might be to look at significant passages as springboards for deeper discussion.

[C512] Multi-Site « C512: Multi-site churches will naturally need to expand their leadership base as they grow.  And one of the benefits to having several sites is that to an extent it will force a church to aggressively develop new leaders.  However, this constant need for reproducing leaders has a couple of inherent dangers in my mind.  First, there is what I will call the leadership mold problem.  Multi-site churches must avoid the temptation of casting all their leaders from the same mold as their original leadership team.  Campus pastors should not all look the same nor should they all be mirrors of the founding pastor.  Second, multi-site churches must determine a way to ensure that developing leaders are equipped in more than just one area of ministry.  Professionalism and specialization can be good ways to conserve energy but they can also shortchange and limit developing leaders.  A prime example of one area where this can happen is in the area of teaching and pastoral leadership.  Campus pastors must be given the opportunity to provide pastoral leadership and care within their own local campuses and should not be forced to rely on a specialist from the “mother” church.  Also, local campus pastors ought to be given the responsibility of teaching and leading their congregations from the pulpit.  Again where possible and where teachers are available I would rather see local campuses becoming self-sufficient rather than continuing to rely on a “mother”

[brent(inWorship)] Multi-Site Churches”¦Kind Of Like Extra Limbs? | brent(inWorship): In reality, it’s a whole bunch of home churches which come together corporately to be “refueled”…your pastor may not be the person preaching. And lets face it, often teaching and pastoring are two very different things (gifts)…a whole other discussion to have if it’s not already been done.
