There's a lot of interest these days in starting up satellite churches or multi-campus churches. Although a lot of people are saying how neat it is, I'm not hearing a lot of talk about how biblical it is. I understand that some pastors have figured out how to make it work pragmatically, but the question I have is, "What does the Bible have to say about this idea?"
I was very interested to hear that a book has been written about the subject: The Multi-Site Church Revolution. I was really hoping they would deal with the theology, but apparently I'm to be disappointed. To be fair, I haven't read the book yet myself; but I have read John Hammett's review (Hammett's a prof at Southeastern). In short, the book is high on pragmatism and short on theology. Bummer. So for the moment, I remain skeptical.
