Some churches have been taking birth control pills!!
And this can be seen by the fact they haven't given birth to anything of significance for a very long time
Consciously or unconsciously policy is developed which thwart the new
This can occur due to not wishing to offend historic traditions or comfortable routines

There are of course those unspoken norms and expectations, which all combined ensure there is no off spring
Percentage wise some churches are in decline which, unfortunately, sees our Movement included in this statement
How should people respond to the lack of growth?
There are many ways, some of which are listed below;
Invite someone along
Join the prayer team
Give more time over to deepening your relationship with Him
Roll up your sleeves, some around you may be tired of carrying so much
Can't give more time? Then what about more tithes?
Sit closer to the front this will inspire those involved in the service
Be prepared to see changes, and know you aren't being forced out
And let us all remember Christ's words - Matthew chapter 16v18b "I will build My church and the gates of hell SHALL NOT prevail against it"
Here in is our great comfort
Blessings
