What do you reckon? Are you for large churches with multiple sites? Or do you prefer smaller local churches with a single site? Are you passionately for or against them?
Not having attended one, I haven’t seen how things would work. But my big question is that of NT prescribed community. Weeping with those who weep. Rejoicing with those who rejoice. Can we do church over multiple sites? Love to hear your thoughts!

Hey Mark – nice new site. It’s got so many fancy things – like that crazy ‘vibe’ thing that spins when you swing your mouse over it.
I wonder what differences there are between multi-campus churches and multi-service churches? Both seem to be extending the definition of ‘church’ beyond gathering/ekklesia. Maybe it’s all a question of ontology!

@Dan – gotta love the lots of fancy things
Yep, the ontology of the church. Let’s crack that out again in Philosophy! I’d be really keen to thrash out ecclesiology with you sometime. I’m really trying to grapple with the concept of church. I’m torn between what the “marks” of a church should be, and how flexible that is….

@Dave – you are quite the pro-blogger aren’t you!
