Multi-Site Musings (Part 3)

Here's a summary of multi-site at Rock Bridge: {continued from Part 2}

1) Multi-site is part of Rock Bridge's strategy to spread the Gospel and make disciples where & when God in His sovereignty opens doors.  (Colossians 4:2-6; Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8)

2) Rock Bridge's campuses are unified more by our vision, beliefs, philosophy of ministry, "DNA", and common biblical teaching than our geography.  (I Peter 1:1-2; Acts 15:22-23)

3) Leadership is shared among staff, elders, and volunteers.  Leadership is centralized in some ways (administration; teaching) and decentralized in others (ministry execution; volunteer development; pastoral care).  The goal is to be build up the body and point people to Jesus! (Ephesians 4:11-15)

4) The Head of the Church is Jesus and He leads His body by each "part" doing its part.  (Colossians 1:18; I Corithians 12:12-20).
