    A Mega Church Pastor Multiplies Churches with Bill Bush

    It seem absurd. The more this church gives away the more they grow???  Why would a megachurch pastor send out his best leaders and resources—and somehow grow even more?  In this episode of Lead With Vision, Bill Bush (Rock Point Church) shares how embracing multiplication didn’t shrink their church… it skyrocketed it.  Bill unpacks the leadership convictions, culture-building insights, and the 4 C’s framework that have helped Rock Point thrive while planting churches and raising up new leaders.  If you're a pastor, planter, or movement-minded leader, this conversation is packed with transferable principles you can apply now.  👊 Growth. ✌️ Sending. 🔥 Convictional Leadership.
