Multiply Network Podcast

We are in the fourth episode of this series called The 8 Most Common Objections to Church Multiplication. This objection is around the thoughts that all new churches hurt existing churches by taking people away. Is it true? Do new church plants steal sheep? Should existing churches lead more with a sending mindset? Do we need better communication between pastors when they are leading in the same community? Dave Slater from the Western Ontario District Office of the PAOC is here to answer all of our questions! See what our hosts and special guest have to say!

We are in the third episode of our new podcast series called "The 8 most Common Objections to Church Multiplication". This objection is around the idea that all our efforts need to be about revitalizing churches not starting new ones. Where do you think this objection is rooted? Does this have some validity? Should we stop planting new churches until the majority of our existing churches are out of plateau and decline? Or is there a both/and strategy instead of an either/or one?See what our hosts and special guest have to say!

We are in the second episode of our brand new podcast series called "The 8 Most Common Objections to Church Multiplication". Objections #2 is "we already have enough churches".  The objection here is based on the idea, "we already have so many churches here in Canada, why do we need any more?" Is this a valid objection? Our cohosts for the series, Paul Fraser and Michael Bronson, tackle this topic head on with special guest Jim Molloy and chat through how we overcome this objection!

We are kicking off a brand new podcast series called "The 8 Most Common Objections to Church Multiplication".
