About this title

Synopsis

When People Feel Valued, They Stay―and They Grow

People don’t drift away from churches because of a lack of programs or preaching―they drift when they don’t feel known, valued, or connected.

Drawing from decades of ministry experience at a growing, multi-campus church, Pastor Steve Chesnut shows how intentional connection helps people move from first-time guests to active members who are growing in Jesus, building relationships, and making a difference.

This book is organized around three essential elements of a healthy culture of connection:

● Power of Connection (why it matters)

● Principles of Connection (what makes it work)

● Process of Connection (how to build it intentionally)

Rather than offering quick fixes or personality-driven solutions, The Power of Connection in the Church provides a clear, replicable framework that works across different church sizes, cultures, and contexts. It equips pastors and ministry teams to build a culture where people consistently feel valued, take spiritual steps, and find lasting belonging as part of a spiritual family.

If you want to close the back door and build a church where people truly belong, this book shows you where to begin.
