quick interview with dave ferguson

image Dave Ferguson is the Lead Pastor of Community Christian Church in Chicago, co-author of The Big Idea, and Head Honcho of The NewThings Network.  Dave lives and breathes Christ and the multi-site church.  Next time you see him, ask about reaching a billion people for Christ.  A billion?  Man, I love God-sized dreams! 

I recently asked Dave a couple of my favorite questions.

Scot:   If you were to do it all over again, what would you do differently?

Dave: Do different?  Lots..but here are a couple

  1. Make sure that I had a whole team of church planters and campus pastors on my team so I could start reproducing campuses, churches within the first 18 months.
  2. Raise more money.
  3. Spend more time in prayer listening to God.

Scot:  What would you do the same?

Dave:  Ok, here goes.  Here are the things I would do the same…

  1. I would stay committed to the mission of Jesus through church planting and reproducing churches.
  2. I would accomplish the mission though a group of people who love each other and understand what it means to be a community.
  3. I would be understand the mission of Jesus to include my family and being committed to them.
