Studies show that the North American church is shrinking as the number of unchurched adults continues to increase in shocking proportions. Churches are stagnant and in need of a return to healthy evangelistic growth.
Based on the book, Comeback Churches: How 300 Churches Turned Around and Yours Can Too by Ed Stetzer and Mike Dodson, the Kentucky Baptist Convention has developed a Comeback Church Process to give direction to weakened churches seeking to make a comeback.
Is your church in need of a comeback?
- To provide good information to church leaders
- To help them with application of the principles
- To see transformation in that results in church health and growth.
Leaders of churches who commit to the Comeback Church process will be guided in growth in five key areas:
- Leadership
- Vibrant faith (renewed beliefs in Jesus Christ and the mission of the church, servanthood and strategic prayer)
- Meaningful and active ministries for laypeople
- Intentional evangelistic efforts
- “Celebrative” and “orderly” mood of worship
Opportunities for growth include individual consultations, seminars, evaluations, networking, coaching and strategic planning.
