Growing an Engaged Church offers unique, research-based, often
counterintuitive solutions to the challenges facing churches today,
including declining congregant participation, decreasing
contributions, and slumping membership. Ministers, priests, and
church boards will find the evidence and answers in this book
provocative, eye-opening, and, most importantly, actionable. What
if members of your congregation... were 13 times more likely to
have invited someone to participate in your church in the past
month? were three times as satisfied with their lives? spent more
than two hours per week serving and helping others in their
community? tripled their giving to your church? What would your
church — your parish — look like? And how would you go about
creating this kind of change? One thing is certain: Church leaders
are never going to inspire more people to be actively and
passionately involved in their congregations by doing the same
things over and over again. Pastors and lay leaders need something
fresh. Something new. The last thing they need is “just another
program” or to set up a laundry list of new activities for
members. Based on solid research by The Gallup Organisation,
Growing an Engaged Church will appeal to both Protestant and
Catholic clergy and lay leaders who are looking for a way to be the
Church instead of just “doing church.”
