• Pocket size guide aims to boost church growth

A practical booklet to help local churches boost their congregations has just been published by the Church of England.

 What we don't know without reading it (Anyone get a copy?) is, "Does it cross the line between wanting to get the Gospel out and being focused mostly on numbers?" I see nothing in the description about sound Biblical teachings, but I don't know. I do know that if you don't keep your teachings pure, there's no point in getting people into the church to hear the message.
