David Gibbons was the head of a huge mega-church, NewSong, when he sensed God calling to Bangkok, of all unlikely places. What he learned there showed him that big money and big buildings and all the other stuff that goes with mega-churches isn't necessarily the most effective way of 'doing' church. In Bangkok, there was no room for huge urban churches; instead, small meetings and small churches work far more effectively.
Leadership Magazine has an online interview with Gibbons, in which he explains a number of the things he learned from his experience.
Focusing on Mission, Ministry & Leadership, Wellness and NZ Trends. Every day we come across material that's helpful to those ministering in the Church. Some of it is vital, some of it is just plain interesting. This blog will aim to include a wide mix of resource material: links to other blogs and sites, helpful quotes, anecdotal material you can use, the names of books worth reading and more.
