| Hi there, | | We’ve all heard the talk track. People are leaving the church at never-before-seen rates. People who stay in the church aren’t attending as often. Giving is down. Young people don’t show up. | | And we expect that things get even worse over the summer months, leading to lower engagement in the fall. | | But are things really as negative as so many people make them out to be? | | The 500 pastors we surveyed don’t think so. | | In fact, 86% of church leaders reported being somewhat or very optimistic about attendance at their church in the future. That’s right—86%. And that’s not all. | | Many churches nationwide are preparing for their biggest, most successful fall kickoff yet by using simple tactics to nurture engagement over the summer. | | Discover the surprising truths about church growth and effective engagement strategies in the 2019 Church Growth Report today.
