When Sam and Thom research local churches, they inevitably calculate average worship attendance. But how can they tell if it’s accurate or not? They share five ways to be certain.
-
- Do not estimate.
- Do not double count.
- Do not include online attendance.
- Have no fewer than two counters.
- Include everyone on campus, not just those in the worship center.
