– now don’t get me wrong, I am not a church growth specialist! I am very new in church planting. But i think I found the secret to church growth!
– one of my good friend suggested that the KEY to church growth is an inspiring worship service!
– another one said EMPOWERED LEADERS
– another quips “PRAYER”
– another suggests ” preaching the infallible WORD OF GOD”
– another notes ” STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE AND FACILITIES”
– another observes ” LOCATION”
– a Greenhills attendee says “PARKING SPACES”
– a volunteer shouts ” WARM ATMOSPHERE”
– a Bible scholar suggested “EXPOSITORY PREACHING”
– a Tim La Haye Fan says “who cares Christ is coming”

So what is the secret of church growth?

ALL OF THE ABOVE AND MUCH MORE
– you can add in ” STRONG LEADERSHIP”
– get the HOLY SPIRIT involve
– great sound system
– a WORSHIP experience
– there might be a thousand other reasons you can add to the list

at the end of the day you have to ask the Lord “As the pastor of this church, what do you want me to do?”
