- Average in-person attendance rose 11% year-over-year across 252 churches, with over 35,000 decisions for Jesus reported.
- This shows growth is both numerical and transformational, not just attendance spikes.

- Use online worship to keep regulars connected and as a low-risk front door for newcomers.
Young Families Drive Fast Growth
- Fast-growing churches disproportionately reach young families with kids ministry up 15% and student ministry up 23%.
- They also simplify worship styles and view online as a pathway to next steps.
