Growing a church God's way takes wisdom and direction. The Prevailing Church answers the call for a solid, biblical resource to guide pastors, elders, and students through the minefield of church growth. Whether the church is 50 people or 5000 people, this book addresses key concerns common to all. Randy Pope covers topics ranging from the practical, such as Realistic Goals and Cultural Relevance, to the theological, such as Holiness, and Discipleship.
