Reaching the Goldilocks Growth Rate
It's crucial for churches to grow at a balanced rate, known as the Goldilocks growth rate, to have a significant impact without overwhelming the ministry team. With an assumed 15% attrition rate, churches need to grow by at least 15% to maintain their size. By having a structured approach that includes documenting 3% new guests weekly and retaining 26% of them, a church can achieve an overall growth rate of 26% over a thousand days, leading to a doubling in size.
