What Size Should We Be. Visioning the In-Between Church (DVD)

Alice Mann

Is our congregation in a size transition? What are the signs? Can our congregation cross the size barrier we are facing? Do we, in fact, have a vocation to make room for more people? Alban senior consultant Alice Mann helps congregations to recognize six possible size transitions: three resulting from growth and three resulting from contraction. The video explains what it will take to navigate the change from one size to another, why congregations choose to make the sacrifices needed to grow, and how to develop a plan for growth. Usage information included. Approximately 90 minutes in four segments.
