Shift in Ministry: Simple Shifts for Church Growth

This final episode of the series discusses the simple shifts that any church can make to reach new people, improve teaching strategies, and connect with the next generation. The focus is on simplicity rather than dramatic changes, as small shifts in ministry can lead to significant growth and health for churches. One main idea is the importance of new people attending Sunday worship services for attendance growth. The benchmark is that churches need the same number of new guests as their current average attendance in the next 12 months to experience growth. The episode also emphasizes the need to finish every message with a clear next step to encourage engagement with God's word. Lastly, it highlights the need for churches to become multi-generational and focused on reaching the next generation, moving away from separate programs and instead creating a church designed for young adults. These simple shifts encourage churches to prioritize mission over preference and embrace change for kingdom impact.
