What is intentional multiplication?
Intentional multiplication means multiplying yourself. It includes personal spiritual growth that results in helping others in the church grow and ultimately helping God's kingdom grow. It includes multiplying leaders for LifeBridge and for new churches that will develop through LifeBridge.
Intentional multiplication means that we are never satisfied where we are--either personally or as a church. While we may have a great worship service on Sunday mornings, the reality is that there are many people who still need what we offer, which means we will have to add additional services in the future. While we have some really great small groups, the reality is many people aren't in a group who need to be, and because our houses only hold a certain number of people we will need to start new groups so that more people can be involved. And while we have a great church we realize that many people struggle to come here (or may never come here) because it's a long drive, which means we may need to start a new church in another area so more people can experience God and discover the difference He wants to make in their lives.
Take the teachings that you heard … and entrust them to reliable people, who will be able to teach others also. 2 Timothy 2:2 (TEV)
