The multiplication strategy actually disciples someone and teaches them to disciple someone else. The multiplication is far more effective because more people will hear about the gospel and it will spread into areas the first person may never go.

The addition strategy is essentially one person making disciples and only affecting the people they personally come in contact with, whereas the multiplication strategy involves making disciple makers, who go on to make more. Addition ends with each disciple you make, however multiplication has a more far-reaching effect, as each disciple maker you make, goes on and makes more disciple makers, and so on. Multiplication is definitely preferred, as it expands the Kingdom in a much grater way.

Addition is good – as they stated in the video. It still adds to the kingdom and the gospel goes out. However, not only does multiplication mean more people are reached with the gospel, but it also means more people are actively walking out their discipleship by making more disciples, not just living as converts. Multiplication means more people saved, and more people actually living out the calling of Matthew 28.

Addition strategy is the model of missions wherein a missionary brings one person to the Lord, and then another and another etc. Multiplication is when a missionary brings someone to the Lord and then teaches them to bring someone to the Lord. This exponentially increases the number of people being led to the Lord at each new “generation” of believer.
