“I love the church. It’s God’s vehicle for transformation. But I don’t want the church to become so centralized that it can’t reproduce, can’t adopt multiple forms. And that works better when you’re small, when you’re on the verge, on the edge. Small is the new big. Big isn’t bad, but it’s overrated.”
–Dave Gibbonsis pastor of NewSong Church in Irvine, California. Taken from “On the Verge” in the Summer 2008 issue of Leadership journal. To see the quote IN context, you’ll need to see the print version of Leadership. To subscribe, click on the cover of Leadership on this page.
