In this valuable church leadership resource, Kevin Martin examines the five aspects of congregational life that are key to the development and growth of a strong congregation. Based on the author's popular church growth seminar, The Five Critical Systems, the five keys to congregational growth are:
Build the Team
Keep Healthy
Pay Attention to Generations
Open the Front Door, Close the Back Door (keep your original members as you gain new members)
Raise the Stewardship Level
Five Keys for Church Leaders distinguishes itself from other such resources with a focus on the “systems” of congregational life rather than the “programs” of congregational life.
