The Cutting Edge

Jim Tomberlin is one of the most well known church consultants in the nation when it comes to multi-site church strategies.

Jim and I have crossed paths a number of times but never really talked until this weekend.

What he shared with me was very encouraging! He reviewed what we’ve been doing in Oakland and here in Wexford and had lots of good input to help us stay on track and, best of all, maximize the opportunities that are before us.

The one thing that I came to see is that “multi-site” is most definitely the best way for churches to reach new people and to create the “movement” of the local church in any given area.

This cutting edge thinking may require some cutting edge sacrifice, but the results are also very gratifying! Please pray for our pastoral team, elders and many people who are engaged in thinking outside the box. It gets lonely out here every once in a while but it’s great to know that people who have no vested interest in telling us what we want to hear, are giving us very high marks for our first steps into the multi-site world.

Blessings!

Dr. Jay
