MetaChurch Strategy

Helping you reach people and change more lives. Want to make more disciples?

[MetaChurch Strategy @metachstrategy]

MEGAchurch = one expression of church with a large congregation/ membership.

META = to change, go beyond or to be comprehensive.

METAchurch = multiple expressions of church (in-person, online, house church, virtual etc) with one mission/vision.

“The Church needs to have a culture of innovation. It’s less about having the latest and greatest technology and more that you have a team culture that is ready to pivot and adapt to stay relevant with how people are convening online and offline." — @hollyhalltate

We needed to stop using social media as a megaphone to broadcast our content, and instead, start using it as a telephone to build our community.

Church leaders that continue to treat online church like a short-term mission trip they went on during COVID will eventually become irrelevant.

YouTube is the place where people go to find the answers to everything; from fixing their car to fixing their marriage.

Jesus didn't establish a church building ... He established a church community.

To go into all the world in the 21st century means deliberately posting content to online and social media platforms with the purpose and intentionality of making disciples.

“A faith community that meets in homes several times a month, has a consistent presence of serving and building in their community every month, and perhaps has a once a month time of corporate worship will be the difference makers." — @IAmStuartHall

When church leaders use technology as a tool for discipleship, we’re able to turn digital spaces into sacred places for an individual.

The number of young adults who believe in God has dropped 10% in the last five years.

This should be cause for concern and a reason to change our church models … right?

According to
@BarnaGroup
... 21% of pastors are concerned about preaching to an online audience.

Chapter 11 of #MetaChurchBook called "Preach Like A YouTuber" addresses this concern directly.
