This is our vision: to obey the Great Commission by undertaking worldwide mission which leads to the starting of many new churches, a process commonly termed ‘church planting’. But for some of us, this poses the question ‘why?’ In the latest blog post, Jon Beardon lays out some scriptural foundations to help us grapple with this question. https://lnkd.in/evYCiX7G #RMnews #RMblog #wearfamily #RMfamily

Thom Rainer provides more information from Lifeway Research here: https://lnkd.in/dSJ6ddnw. What is a “normal-size church”? The ARDA reports in 2020 in the state of Ohio there were 1867 nondenominational congregations. 1,411,863 people claimed to be adherents of these congregations. Simple division says 756 adherents per congregation. To look at it another way, the adherence rate is 120 per 1000 people. Therefore, in a town of 6000 people there could be 720 non-denominational evangelical protestants. What this doesn’t mean is that there actually is a congregation of 720 nondenominational evangelical protestants. There could be multiple nondenominational congregations in one town with the population of 6000.
“About 95 percent of churches have fewer than five hundred in attendance. In other words, only about 5 percent of pastors are serving churches of medium to large size. The vast majority of pastors will never serve in a church larger than 150 people. Perhaps this means we are mislabeling - maybe, instead of small-size churches, we should call them normal-size churches.” - Ron Klassen in Maximize! Leveraging the Strengths of Your Small Church (p. 20)
