Cultural ecclesiology impedes church multiplication. A microchurch is a real church. A leader discipled by another is a real, biblical leader. And, biblical understanding of the church solves many network problems. Yet, multiplying too quickly is as problematic as multiplying too slowly. You'll learn to deal with tensions like...

• Restructuring around a different center.
• Changing the scorecard from addition to multiplication.
• Financial and leadership costs, which may cause an initial slowdown.
• What to do with children in a microchurch.
• A personal temptation to play pope to microchurch leaders.
• The fear of losing personal status identified with the prevailing model of a pastor.
• "Fuzzy copy" churches that won't clone the one you lead.
• The short life cycle of SOME microchurches
