Jody Stowell invites you to explore how, in the race for growth, we may be missing the deep significance of smaller congregations. Within these smaller churches lies a resilience and spiritual depth that is often lost in the noise. This is a call to rediscover the profound worth of smaller congregations and their vital place in faith communities.
In a time when churches across denominations face a steady decline in attendance, smaller congregations often find themselves overshadowed by the push for growth and numbers. While larger "Resource Churches" are praised for their expansion, the true value of the smaller church is frequently overlooked. But what if there’s a unique gift in these smaller communities?
Jody Stowell invites you to explore how, in the race for growth, we may be missing the deep significance and essential role of smaller congregations. As anxiety about survival and financial security spreads throughout the church, local churches and their leaders bear the burden. Yet, within these smaller churches lies a richness, resilience, and spiritual depth that is often lost in the noise.
This is a call to rediscover the profound worth of smaller congregations and recognize their vital place in the future of faith communities.
