There are more than 3,000 multisite churches across North America. Everyone has a unique church-print. There is no “one size fits all” formula they all follow, but all will wrestle with the same basic issues. This eBook is a compilation of my 15 years of experience as a multisite pioneer and consultant. It addresses those common issues with hard-earned insights from being in the trenches with those who are doing it. It is for church leaders who are considering multisite and refresher for those who are already in the game.

Three recent books examine church attendance trends and confirm Willow Creek’s Reveal study. The church’s failure to make disciples is growing worse each year. Based on current statistics, George Barna’s book, Revolution, predicts that by 2025 only 30 percent of those seeking ways to experience church will do so in what is now the traditional congregational form of church. Many of those opting out are “post-congregational,” that is, while they no longer go to church, they still have church with friends and family in an intimate setting.
