Growing churches - Continuing the adventure
One of the things that you notice about living organisms is that they are designed to grow. If they are not growing, something is wrong. Identifying and attending to any hindrances to growth is essential. Growth always involves change and at times this can be painful. While some established churches may be renewed, others find the transition too painful or too difficult and will not survive. Seeking help at an early stage must be advisable. Rural Ministries' staff are currently available to lead interactive sessions on:
- Assessing the health of you church.
- Managing Change
- Handling Conflict
- Could your church plant a church?
- Caring for your Pastor/Church leaders
Other sessions are being developed, visit the resources page. Suggestions are welcome on topics that we may cover and are of interest to the local rural church.
