Urban church planting means lots of churches in close proximity (same parish?)

Cities are big, densely populated and diverse.


If we are serious about reaching cities with the saving message of Christ, we need more than a one-church-per-suburb parish system. We need to be willing to tolerate multiple ministries in close proximity. In fact we should proactively multiple ministries in close proximity.


There are simply far too many people and far too many different KINDS of people in any one urban area, to be be realistically 'covered' by a single church.
