Meta-Church Model

A couple of weeks ago, Marty Duren @ SBCOUTPOST asked me to write an article (750-1000 words) about the meta church model. I’m a big proponent of the model for church growth and believe in it.

I wrote about our church’s implementation of the meta-church model in a previous post. Others seek to use the mega-meta model, mega churches using satellite locations, ie Hybels, Stanley and Young, jr. That’s fine, whatever works. The church growth issue for me is (1) it is a biblical model, (2) is it kingdom oriented, (3) does it fit your context, (4) do you have the resources to pull it off.

David has been a systems thinker most of his life. He has started three businesses as well as designed and developed systems and processes in existing organizations. He has a Doctorate in Leadership and has also done additional post-graduate work in communications.

He has also pastored 3 churches and loves to think about, write about and podcast about scripture, theology, and leadership.
