Becoming a Level Five Multiplying Church continues a conversation started in the Exponential book Spark: Igniting a Culture of Multiplication, drilling down into more detail focusing on how we can each play our part in moving the needle on church multiplication. While Spark introduced these three core elements of culture, in this book Todd and Dave press more deeply into how we live them out. In this expanded version, Alan Hirsch also provides an additional chapter and comments throughout the book. Focusing on the specifics of helping churches identify where they are on the multiplication scale (Levels 1 - 5) and what's needed to become a Level 5 multiplying church, Todd and Dave champion multiplication and equip future church multipliers to move beyond the prevailing addition-growth scorecards. The bottom line, the authors say, is that we need to rethink the operating system that's producing growth but not producing multiplication--and aim for more healthy Kingdom growth that's focused on multiplication.
