Book Review: Multi-Site Churches – 9Marks
July 28, 2009 by James Kubecki
Bobby Jamieson at 9Marks reviews Scott McConnell’s book Multi-Site Churches: Guidance for the Movement’s Next Generation:
Me reviewing this book is like a PETA employee reviewing a hunting manual.
Let me explain. I don’t think churches should be multi-site. I think that the New Testament church’s example, the meaning and use of the word ekklesia, and the nature of congregational authority all indicate that a church is by definition, and therefore should only be, a single assembly that meets in one place. Strictly speaking, I don’t think that multi-site churches even exist. I think that each site or campus or venue is by definition a separate church, at least if we use the word “church” the way the New Testament does.
