In this episode of "Around the Block with Pastor T," Pastor T sits down with Pastor Joshua Roulhac to discuss the importance of church planting and revitalization in neglected areas like Congress Heights, DC. They highlight the great need for the gospel in these communities and the lack of churches in these areas compared to others. They also explore the challenges and changes that come with church planting and revitalization, particularly when it comes to smaller churches.
There is sometimes a perception that smaller churches aren't as successful or significant as larger churches, which may stem from a consumer mentality some people bring to church, expecting customized consumer experiences. What if the smallness of a church is more of an advantage than a liability. In an ever-changing and ever-evolving community, a churches ability to be nimble and pivot can ensure it is always ready to reach the needs of the community.
Maybe our focus should be on better churches, not BIGGER ones? Join Josh and Pastor T as they talk about this.
