Many Christian Pastors and Laymen act or pretend, as if Church Growth is some kind of mystical thing that we really can't grasp, something like the wind. Why one church grows and another is a mystery. Is it really a mystery? Surely there is a "supernatural" element to Church Growth, but is that all it is? After spending over 20 years in the church, here's what I've seen and learned. There is yes, a supernatural element to church growth, but there is also a very "practical element too". Perhaps Church Growth is somewhere in between, where the two meet. In this short book, I try to describe what I've seen and what I've learned in over 20 years of Christian Service and visited churches all accross the world, from Canada to the U.S. to Japan and Africa and back. I hope you learn something or if not, reinforce, what you've always known to be true.
