Chpt 5: Size Strategy for Effectiveness. Audio Book

When it comes to the size of a church, it's easy to assume that bigger is better. But is it really? Instead of 1,000 people in one church, might it be better to have 100 people in 10 churches? For its first two hundred years, the church met in the private homes of its members. Since everything in the New Testament was written to a church that met in someone's home, the body-life activities set forth as ideal were designed for smaller settings. God used these small churches to turn the Roman world upside down (Acts 17:6). Smaller churches have strategic, divinely-designed size advantages for effective ministry.
