About the Book

Church attendance is declining both in fewer new people coming to church and current members coming less often—that’s our challenge—but we can stop and reverse it.
This book is not a quick read filled with magic solutions. It will take time to read, digest, and plan implementation because the issue of declining church attendance and retention is not an easy issue to understand with easy answers to fix it. There are many parts of church theology, growth, and health that factor in and what follows is not an all-inclusive solution.
This book is written from years of experience working with many churches that show church communications that can make a big difference in reversing the trend of church decline and that effective church communications can help your church grow in numbers and your people in spiritual maturity.
