The type of church structure that we are going to try to develop is going to make a big difference in the way we actually go about planting this church. The methods we choose will need to fit the model of the church. In this section of the lecture "Church structures" Craig Ott:

- gives a quick overview of basic forms that church life can take;

- talks about two factors which will be the key in determining the appropriate church structure; 

- shares important principles we need to keep in mind; 

- explains the fundamental difference between the cell church and traditional western church with small groups.
