I just posted about how going to conferences is like, "drinking from a fire hydrant." I like the hangover imagery too! I thought that the date night statement was very interesting too. But I wonder how open people will actually be towards that? tim Ha! I just posted about how going to conferences is like, “drinking from a fire hydrant.” I like the hangover imagery too!

I thought that the date night statement was very interesting too. But I wonder how open people will actually be towards that?

The reality in a multi-site environment to have everything run through some kind of centralized process or system kills momentum and creativity. What needs to happen is that the DNA that needs to be transferred is identified. That then forms the "guide" for making decisions and executing the mission at the new site. One example for us is that I am the campus pastor. Greg still does a lot of the teaching via video but he really isn't the pastor for East folks. I am the shepherd if you will for that campus. That authority has been transferred to me. There a number of ways that we are still discovering. Good question, thanks for asking. We actually are still figuring out how this needs to be true.

"Going multi-site pushes the gas pedal of a church decentralizing." Can you elaborate on this comment and how you think it may pertain to Suncrest? Hi Doug,
