Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many have pontificated about church growth, telling church planters and pastors how to increase the number of attendees and members. Most have spoken authentically from inspiring experiences, and what they’ve recommended has worked . . . at least for some. But what about advice on how to reduce those numbers, how to empty those pews? This “manual” provides just that, and its suggestions don’t emanate from an ivory tower; they, too, are based on real-life experiences. The insights and guidelines of How to Empty a Church may be expressed tongue-in-cheek, but they’re not fictional; they reflect the history of an actual congregation. Fasten your seatbelt; it’s going to be a bumpy—but worthwhile—ride!
