Change can be a long process, and if you are going to keep momentum it is important that people stay motivated and encouraged as they experience short term wins along the way.

Every church has a culture, and some of these cultures help us while others hinder. In this episode, Colin Baron and David Devenish look at what culture is and how to reinforce positive culture and bring change where that culture is unhelpful.

Systems and operation may not be the most glamorous aspect of church life, but they are crucial to making multisite work well. In this webinar we lift the lid on what it takes to manage a church that exists across a number of sites. Whilst some of the application varies depending on the number of sites and complexity of the organisation, this will be a practical conversation that covers principles that are important in any stage and style of multisite church.

Conversation with Liam Thatcher and Colin Baron about how to maximise preaching in a multisite church.

One of the key challenges faced in any multisite church is how leadership will operate. What will be the responsibility of site leaders? How will this interact with the 'centre' of the church and the senior pastor? How do elders fit into this? What about staff? Trustees? There is no one size fits all solution to these questions, but for the church to thrive as it grows to multiple sites these are key issues to think through, and we discuss them in this episode.

In the first iteration of a multisite church, there may be ready-made leaders who can head up the new site whilst others remain in leadership in the sending site. This division of labour can only take you so far however, and in order to keep multiplying sites you need to bring through new leaders. For a senior leader in a multisite church this presents unique challenges and unique opportunities as many of those potential leaders are in sites that you don't have as much direct involvement in as others. In this conversation we explore some of these challenges and how multisite church offers new opportunities for bringing through new leaders.

Colin Baron started church planting in the early 1990s and has started several churches through the UK, particularly across Manchester where he has been ministering for the last 25 years. In this episode Colin talks the multipanting model that he has developed. For more about Colin's story and church planting philosophy, see his recent book 'Multiplanting'.

For many of the challenges that multisite churches face, there are a variety of different approaches, and these flow from the philosophy of the church. Not all multisite churches are the same. Some are heavily centralised with each site acting like a 'franchise' with a common experience. Others are much more devolved, with leadership, vision, finance, teaching and other aspects of church life operating at a local level. Still others have a model somewhere between these extremes. One of the keys to navigating the different challenges of multisite church is gaining clarity on exactly what type of multisite you are building. In this webinar we talk through the different models of multisite and look at what the implications of each model are for how you build. Special Guest: Brad House (executive pastor of ministry at Sojourn Church in Louisville, Kentucky and co-author of 'Multichurch: Exploring the Future of Multisite')
