SMALL PARISHES
Is small always bad? Can it be OK sometimes, perhaps even occasionally good, or maybe even better? It doesn’t seem like being small should be bad all the time, and yet, everywhere we go, all we hear about is how getting bigger is better.
It certainly didn’t bother David to be very small when he went against a much bigger Goliathan obstacle.
Our Lord and Savior started with a mere 12 men, most of whom did not have particularly distinguished theological credentials. And now, almost 2,000 years later, the biggest movement in the world remains the very small church Christ started. And most of the early Christian churches of the day all started very small. Some stayed that way and became strong, and many grew.
With my special guest, Joe Kormos of the OCA, we explore some of the unique challenges facing small churches and some possible solutions and ideas to help them more fully meet their mission.
