Its often been said that many churches suffer from "The Revolving Back-Door Syndrome". The problem being that many people come, but few are retained. You could potentially grow to 1,000 people in attendance and yet 3 years later still have 1,000 and the majority of attendees have different faces.
Its staggering to think that statistics have proven that most churches have an almost complete turn-over every seven years!
With this in mind I feel as though I have heard God speak something to me, "Reach them and KEEP them..."
Its easy to focus on reaching people, however it requires a different strategy to keep people plugged-in and connected. As a result, we are launching RK Vison: Reach Them & Keep Them. The focus of this new approach will be to not just make converts, but to follow the command of Christ and make disciples.
You'll be hearing much more about this in the coming days...
I covet your continued prayers as we make the vision a reality!
