Getting Your Church In Growth Mode
How does a church growth focus assist with effective members retention?
When members and leaders of the church contribute to fostering healthy relationships among the members, minimizing and resolving conflicts in a timely manner, they are contributing to a healthy church environment. This kind of environment enhances the desire of members to attend the services and activities of the church frequently and also invite others to share the experience. That is a powerful means of growing the church both qualitatively and quantitatively.
I really live the point about quantitative and qualitative growth. So often we focus only on numerical growth because it is easier to observe and reference, however, growing into Christian discipleship is the ultimate goal. That leads to increase numerical and qualitative growth. So discipleship should be the focus of church growth strategy.
