    The Sovereignty Of God In Church Growth

    Contributed by Norman Bernad on Jan 18, 2026
     | 64 views

    When we think about church growth, it’s easy to focus on programs, strategies, or numbers on a chart. But the book of Acts invites us to see church growth in a very different light — as the sovereign work of God, moving powerfully through His Spirit.

    “The Sovereignty of God in Church Growth” • Acts 2:47; • 1 Corinthians 3:6–7 • Psalm 127 • “Who really grows the church?” • Mention how people often attribute church growth to marketing, programs, or personalities. • But Scripture shows us: God is the one who gives the increase.

    Today we're going to use several familiar passages of Scripture to stress the importance of us sharing Christ with the world. Telling others about Jesus is what helps to make a church be an authentic church. Authentic, because we truly care about other's salvation.
