• Bigger buildings are expensive, often impractical, and are less effective in reaching people more than 20 minute drive from it.
• Outreach into surrounding communities is increased when the church makes worship venues available in those communities.
• Local venues allows a smaller church feel and family atmosphere that is often lost with typical “megachurches”.
• Daughter churches (although often a viable option) lose the symbiotic relationship of working intimately within a broader community of believers. All too often daughter churches die due to neglect or unsound nurturing.
• Most importantly, our church is called by God to reach out to everyone. We do not have the option to ignore this calling. We must do more than simply do nothing and hope that those in need of God will find Him somewhere else.
