Question
Some shuls say Kabbalat Shabbat from Bima and some from Amud. what is the background on this difference?
Answer
The difference is technical, some shuls are big and since they want everyone to hear they'd rather Daven "optional" Tefilot, such as Kabbalat Shabbat, from the Bima in the middle of Shul.
