Still a few spots...looking for a handful more people who want to walk through eight forks in the road that EVERY church must face. It's a four-session, live, author-facilitated exploration of award-winning "Becoming a Future-Ready Church." Details here: exponential.org/becoming-a-f…

Over-communicating to both churches is a key factor in #churchmerger success. Love how @RinggoldChurch does this with its "Merger Minute - 2 Counties, One church." youtu.be/PGkAFW_bW3A?si=O9fR… via @YouTube

No two mergers are alike. Every church merger comes about through a unique set of circumstances.
Yet every merger conversation revolves around 3 primary questions in our search to determine, “Can we walk together?”

Church mergers have clearly become a viable option for strong as well as stuck and struggling churches…
But how do you determine if a merger is right for your church?

Mergers bring additional complexity to the multisite process. That’s why it’s important to know what health looks like for one of your locations before you step into merger conversations.

Multisiting is all about reproducing and multiplying your church.
You cannot reproduce healthy congregations from a sick or dying church.

Unfortunately, many churches would choose to die rather than experience a rebirth—and it’s that attachment to the past that leads to the church’s ultimate demise. [episode 293] #unstuckchurch theunstuckgroup.com/the-chal…

Churches considering adding new campuses need to establish a process for identifying locations, finding staff and building teams, and launching at the right time.

It was an incredible time of teaching how to #multisite and do #churchmergers to church leaders in PINGST (Pentecostal Church Network of Sweden). Ja, sure! Off to Oslo, Norway. . .

On the final day, it won’t be about worship preferences, denomination affiliations, theological nuances, organizational charts, etc.
The important question will be, “Did we make the best decisions for the sake of God’s church and the advancement of his kingdom?” @MergerGuru

@MergerGuru: "Phil--thank you for inviting me to express my hopes and concerns about the status of the #Church in America. As a #pastor, author and consultant who has served the Church for 40+years I am encouraged but also concerned about the state of the American Church."

It’s time to embrace our current reality: If you want to see attendance growth, it’s not going to be from people coming back to church. You are going to have to reach new people.

Going multisite is a way for churches to extend their ministry impact in a way that is actually financially sustainable.
Now, the question is, post-COVID, what does this mean for churches?

Going forward new church buildings will be smaller, simpler, multipurpose, multi-venue and community-centric.
