  Dream Big!
  
  Jesus challenged us with a big dream and we need to challenge our churches to dream big too! Jesus lays out his big dream for the church in Acts 1:8 with the challenge to go to "... Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, ends of the earth ..." Jesus' big dream was for his church to be a Level 5 multiplying church. As followers of Jesus and leaders of his church we are to fulfill Jesus' vision of a church that strives to be 5!

  Big Dreams Change Our Questions
  
  When we dream big it changes the questions we ask and is a catalyst for creativity and innovation. When we accept Jesus' challenge to dream big and become a 5 it will bring with it a new set of challenges and questions. We will have to ask, "How can I lead this church here and still plant campuses and churches out there, there and over there too?" We will begin to ask, "How can we develop leaders and grow resources not just for my church, but to send out to all the new churches we are going to start?" We will also ask, "How can I make sure we don't relax after I have reached a certain size or level of success, but instead continue to take risks?"

  Big Dreams Change Our People
  
  People are inspired by and want to be a part of big dreams. We know that leaders reproduce who they are, and when we embrace the big dream of a Level 5 multiplying church it will not only change us, but also change our people and the churches they lead for generations to come.

  Big Dreams Change Our Prayers
  
  Big dreams make us more dependent on God and drive us to our knees. If you don't have a dream that causes you to be dependent on God, then you need to get a bigger dream! A movement-making church is not possible on our own. When we embrace Jesus' big dream of Level 5 multiplying church we will quickly come to the realization that it will only happen through the power of God. This realization will drive us to our knees asking God to accomplish through us what only he can do; knowing we can not do this on our own.

  Big Dreams Change Us
  
  Big dreams change us and change the world! When we make a commitment to the big dream of a Level 5 multiplying church it will profoundly change us! We cannot wait for change and expect a movement of multiplication. First must come the commitment to the big dream of a multiplying church and then we will be changed!
  
  The session will end with the commissioning of leaders who are ready to take their next step in the big dream of church multiplication.
