Abstract:

Every church wants to grow. Every church wants a healthy congregation growth. Church growth is classified into two types: number and quality. Quantitative growth refers to a significant increase in church membership. Quality growth is characterized by the number of church members who are spiritually mature enough to want to be served as well as serve. The early church grew rapidly. The early church grew numerically as fresh souls joined the Christian fellowship. Moreover, the Early Church had qualitative growth, with every member actively participating in church activities.

Abstract:

Conceding that the “church growth” concept and methodology have come under fire, the author shares an insider's reflections on how the movement has fared since Donald McGavran originated it three decades ago. The history of the movement and the relation between the Institute for Church Growth and the School of World Missions at Fuller Theological Seminary are traced. Dialogue and controversy with the WCC in the sixties, and growing influence within the Lausanne movement in the seventies, are sketched. The impact and consequences of church growth for world missions and for church life in the US

Church growth is a phenomenon that is very commonly discussed by people, especially in the Christian world. Often church growth is seen from the quantity (the number of congregations growing rapidly and many) without regard to the quality of the congregation. Although the Bible does not specifically talk about church growth, the principle of church growth is understood in the words of Jesus "I will build my church and the gates of hell will not overpower it", (Matt. 16:18), the church can live and grow even though the number of membership / attendance do not change.

The condition of God's church today is quite interesting to the author's attention, especially in terms of the character of church growth. The church lost a Biblical figure in terms of church growth. As a result of losing this figure, the church uses any means or justifies any means to force its growth so that they are trapped in unbiblical practices in their growth. The church's indiscretion in observing the Bible to find a good portrait of church growth. As a result of the church's inaccuracy in observing the truth of the Bible, there is a narrowing of the church's understanding of its dutie

We argue that five predictions derived from the Social Brain Hypothesis are accurately borne out in the empirical and practical church growth literature: that larger congregations lead to lower active engagement from members; that single-leader
