Written by Dave Ferguson
Twice a year our NewThing Lead Pastors get together to hang out and strategize about catalyzing a movement of reproducing churches. In May they all came to Chicago and we had a lot of fun; but during the fun we talked about just this question: what will it take to catalyze a movement?

What Does NewThing Do?
Written by Jon Ferguson, Director of NewThing
God has definitely blessed us beyond what we imagined! Today, Community Christian Church reaches over 5,000 people every weekend between our nine locations in the Chicago area.

In addition, NewThing has equipped thousands of church leaders all over the world through Conferences, Coaching and Creative Resources. So what does NewThing Networks do?

Lifepointe has just become a multi-site church, launching its second location in February of 2008.
