Some takeaways from the panel discussion during the last session – it was Q&A, so I didn’t take great notes.  I may come back to this when I get my CD’s from the conference.

Jon Ferguson – “Everybody who walks through your church door needs relationships and a responsibility.”

Dave Ferguson – “Count and measure for evaluation- Keep score to know when you win. “ 

Scott Chapman – “How do you help people form relationships in the first 30/60/90 days in a way that is natural and not programmatic?”

Larry Osborne – “Learn how to keep church small enough (through small groups) to give people the relational connections they need.”

“Creating a “Christian version” of what a community group, service org, etc. is doing is not as effective as partnering/cooperating with the existing group.”

“In multi site the guy on the screen is not the pastor, he’s the teacher – you have to have a pastor for the multi site flock.”
