It IS about the numbers….

Perry had a great post today about a topic that I have been taking a little heat for lately. I do get a kick out of those who get upset about you talking about numbers. I have learned that is normally those attending a small, non-growing church that seem to ahve the biggest issue with numbers. I find it funny that we have NEVER talked about numbers in our service unless to talk about how many we started with and where we are now, we have NEVER set an attendance goal, etc. yet people say we are all about numbers.

The fact is we are about numbers but you wouldn’t get that from a Sunday morning service. Numbers represent lives. It is that plain and that simple. The bigger the number of people we have, the bigger the number of people who are hearing God’s word. That pumps me up!!!!!

We didn’t start RSC to make no impact, we started it to change Canton with the Gospel. It is hard to do that without people there. :)
