Creating Spiritual and Numerical Growth
My church is steadily declining. How do I reverse it?
You are not alone. According to Barna, 24% of pastors feel the same way. Just in the state of Arizona, over 500 pastors are wondering the same thing.
- The stress on your family.
- The physical toll on you.
- The discouragement of political division.
- The looks on your people’s faces.
These factors drain the energy from the place AND you may not feel equipped to create an environment for church growth.
Your congregation, who looks to you for leadership, wants you to fix it, but you are not sure what to do.
So, your search for answers in books like:
- “Future Church”
- “Intentional Churches”
- “Anatomy of a Revived Church”
You may even go to a conference or two. You search on the net for “church growth.” The information is great, you’ve acquired a bunch of knowledge and understand it. Now what?
All the while, in the back of your mind, you’re thinking,
“I am a pastor, I preach and love people. I’m not sure how to do this.”
Surely there is a way to do it. Right? We get it. We have been there.
That’s why we developed a skill-based approach born out of deep research and practice. One that works.
Keep in mind that healthy churches grow in this order:
- Spiritually
- Numerically
- Financially
- Multiply
Spiritual renewal always precedes numerical growth. As people grow closer and go deeper with God, God responds by sending more people.
