Details
Real Good Church offers a look at everything First Church Somerville UCC, a progressive Christian church in the shadow of Harvard, MIT and Tufts Universities, did to reverse their death spiral and become the healthy, stable, spirited and robust community it is today. Real Good Church communicates how the triumphant renewal led to: a large percentage of children and young adults in the church, a sixfold increase in pledged giving in the last decade, and most importantly in the spirit of joy that pervades the community.
The strategies they used are presented in the book, Real Good Church, and can work in any church, in any setting: regardless of denomination, demographics, or political landscape. By addressing topics like outreach and growth strategies, finances and giving, creative worship including the central place of personal testimony and corporate prayer practices, Real Good Church shares the hard won road map used to create a vibrant church community from one that was dying. Areas of interest that are presented also include: church conflict and change, anxiety and laughter, and much more--all treated with humor and offering real, practical, immediate steps for getting started.
