Has your church hit an attendance growth barrier?
We have found that 7 out of 10 churches can’t grow past 100-150 weekly attendance. Numbers aren’t everything, but it’s okay to want to grow your church. Why do some churches struggle to achieve certain attendance milestones?
❌ Low or no expectations
❌ No prayer or evangelism
❌ Gimmicky invitation strategies
❌ Unwilling congregation
