Should a Church Try to Grow in Size?

Episode 711 Show Notes

From the Show

A pastor’s primary calling is to give people the bread of life. And sometimes that isn’t going to attract a crowd. It didn’t on that day in John 6—many people left Jesus and he turned to his disciples and asked, “are you going to leave too?” And Peter says, “To whom shall we go? You have the words of everlasting life.”
