Comments on: The Death of the Megachurch http://churchvoices.com/archives/454 Tue, 06 Jan 2009 13:55:44 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Tim Reed http://churchvoices.com/archives/454/comment-page-1#comment-9631 Tim Reed Tue, 13 Nov 2007 19:13:52 +0000 http://churchvoices.com/archives/454#comment-9631 I've been thinking about this for awhile but I don't think it necesarily follows that because a church uses multiple campuses and a single beamed in sermon that it is automatically a topdown structure. It very well could be (and lends itself to that structure), but a lot of it will depend on how the individual campuses are run.

I have my own opinions on this matter, but the question remains, if this does fit the corporation model, then is it doomed to fail as people move in a different direction? I know of a large local "megachurch" doing the same thing here in the Cincinnati area, and I'm not sure how successful it will be. Ben poses an interesting question.

(i.e. those churches that are basically acquiring buildings and broadcasting their sermons on sundays to a variety of smaller congregations.) Do you think this fits the corperation model you mentioned? What’s your opinion on the mega-church beginning to bridge into satalite venues?
