"We're committed to cross cultural community, and you almost want to believe that anything that's a good commitment or a truly biblical priority will actually spell numerical growth.
But sometimes, committing yourself to cross-cultural things can cause people to step away, can cause your congregation to not grow or even to shrink.
I don't know. Do you think that it's true?
Do you just think there's evidence that a cross-cultural commitment for a local church spells slower numerical growth?"
In this episode, Duke wonders what the payoff really is for his commitment to cross-cultural ministry. If it's not church growth, then what is it? And why is it so hard to grow diverse, inclusive churches anyway?
Glenn, Russ, and Duke share their own stories of stalled growth and setbacks before settling on the real reason for their cross-cultural commitments.
