Laughed a lot – thought it was bang on.
I will say it again, though – in my experience no church ever grows unless it is offering a really good quality of worship and has an involved and welcoming congregation.
Similarly, any church which cannot offer these is a disaster waiting to happen.
But every shrinking church is not a church without these things, though too many are.
Learning to look out, to ask ‘How can we serve others by offering what they truly need?’ is a good place to start. Asking: ‘What if God wanting here?’ is indispensable.

This documentary on Channel 4 is very wearisome. Too many pantomime characters. Too much like real life.
