Why We All Need to Do a Motive Check on Church Growth

Need Some Help?

Believe it or not, most of the growth that happens in churches doesn’t just happen in megachurches. Sure, they’re growing.

But most of it statistically happens in small churches (which is about 85 percent of all churches). And that’s where help is needed the most.

I know because I’ve lived through it.

If you’re reaching more people but you’re currently stuck at an attendance plateau, I have some practical help for you.

Breaking 200 Without Breaking You is a course I’ve created that provides strategies on how to tackle eight practical barriers (including a more nuanced and practical dive into everything I covered in this blog post) that keep churches from reaching more than 200 people. And it’s designed so I can walk your entire leadership team or elder board through the issues.

So whether your church is 50, 150 or 250 in attendance, the principles will help you gain the insight you need to break the barrier more than 85 percent of churches can’t break. Even churches with attendances of 300-500 are finding the material helpful as they try to reach more people.

What Do You Think?

So those are false motives I’ve had to wrestle with and I’ve seen many other leaders struggle with.

The truth is, I think we all want to see the church to grow. The question is why.

Do you see any other false motives?
