Multi-site Church Road Trip

Southern Baptist Multi-site Buzz

Jeremy Roberts, Staff Pastor at Prestonwood Baptist, and guest columnist for the Southern Baptist blog - SBC Outpost has seemingly struck a nerve.  An original post on August 7 has already drawn well over 100 comments.  To see what it is all about and to add your two cents go to SBC Outpost.

Many of the comments are related to megachurches so you might also want to check out Beyond Megachurch Myths, the conversation and information regarding our latest book with Jossey Bass.

International Applications

I am amazed at the ways that God appears to be using the multi-site model to reach the world - through international satellite campuses.  I recently came across this note on a campus that Flamingo Road Church established recently in Peru.

In 2007, God has enlarged His territory with FLamingo  Road Church again as they launched 3 more campuses: the Internet campus, Sawgrass, and their first international campus  in Lima , Peru. Their long term goal - become one church…where you are.

I know that Celebration Church  (Jacksonville, FL). Healing  Place Church (Baton Rouge, LA) and Christ the King (Mt. Vernon, WA)  also have campuses around the world.

Who else is taking their campus around the world?

What are the unique challenges and opportunities?
