The reason I ask this question is b/c I believe there are many people in our world, and even in the church, that do not truly believe what they say they ...read more

    What is church in the business of doing? Are we suppose to grow? Whose fault is it if we don't? I hope to answer some of these questions for us.

There are many aspects to growth, such as soul winning, being a good witness for Christ. If a church is going to grow it also needs a healthy membership that will follow the ...read more
