A ruling by the Supreme Court that will have major ramifications for church leadership and potentially, church doctrine, in the United States. And it happened on a Friday.

Typically, churches that contact us about exploring satellite as a delivery option for their multi site campuses have previously tried multiple delivery options yet – for one reason or another – have been dissatisfied with the results. I just read a very informative blog by Pastor Jim Elgi, where he walks through the process of…
