Check out Bill's post on church multiplication , he puts a out a great point about Lakewood's growth vs. what their multiplication could have been.
Okay, so $95 million, split by $50,000 start-up gifts, comes out to...
...1900 new churches that could have been started. 1900 more churches. Now, use your imagination a bit. Let's say, over the course of each of these church's history, they only grow to be about 100 people. That's not big. Not a megachurch. But do the math again. If each of these 1900 churches grew to 100 (not an outlandish number), then there would be...
...190,000 people who are now part of these churches."
