Pastors: Multi-Site Churches About Evangelism, Not Numbers

The number one reason for pursuing the increasingly popular multi-site strategy is evangelism, not bigger attendance numbers, say church pastors who are at the forefront of the multi-site movement.

"Really for us, it's absolutely just about lost people. It's not like 'let's all be seeker sensitive.' This generation, they want to hear the truth," said John Bishop, pastor of Living Hope Church in Vancouver, Wash.

A multi-site church can be described as one church that meets in multiple locations – also called campuses. Most engage in live, on-site preaching and many engage in video satellite preaching – where a pastor's sermons are broadcasted from one church location to the other campuses. Each multi-site location typically has their own live worship music and most meet in a school, restaurant or mall.
