“One of the things I miss most about being a pastor is baptizing new believers. I don’t believe baptism saves a person, but the act is nonetheless a powerful picture of the gospel.” ~ Chuck Lawless https://t.co/W9LW3THWaO

But the findings in this study suggest the reality is far more complicated.” ~ Sam Rainer https://t.co/aYpPMIyiYu

“The median congregation had fallen dramatically over twenty-five years, from 137 in 2000 to 65 just before the full effects of the pandemic were felt, then down to 45 during the disruption, and now up to 70. The increase from 65 to 70 is modest, but it moves the median congregation above the pre-pandemic figure.” ~ Sam Rainer https://t.co/x4UJBepCZI
