Helping the Small Church Win Guests - Hardcover

by Desmond Barrett (Author), Tom Cheyney (Foreword by)

The heart behind any revitalization effort is to see the church reach the community and new people with the gospel. It should not be about membership, tithing, or even more people in the pews. Those will come if the church is willing to prepare for guests for the greater good of the community. There is no silver bullet in winning and keeping new guests, but may you find strategies in this resource that will make you think about what more you could do to prepare, retain, and invite guests into the local church.
