2. Growing Churches are Led By Growing Leaders
The growth of a church is greatly determined by the growth of the leader. When you are growing, your church is growing. Conversely, when you are not growing, your church will not grow either.
Here's the wrong question, "What can I do to make my church grow?"
Instead, here are some growth questions I ask myself all the time:
-how am I growing in my prayer life? how's my quiet time - am i spending regular time in God's presence and in his Word?
-how am I growing in my marriage? what am I doing to grow my relationship with my kids?
-how am I growing as a leader? what models of ministry am I studying? who's coaching me right now? who am i investing in right now? what books am i planning on reading this month? what conferences will i attend or watch online?
-how am I growing as a communicator of God's word? what am i doing to be a better preacher?
