About the book: Small Church BIG Deal
The vast majority of church congregations are small. In fact, 85% of churches never break the 200 attendee mark. And yet, instead of being seen as the norm and as an incredible way to do ministry, a bigger-is-better mentality reigns in America with mega churches driving the growth culture.
There are pastors in small churches everywhere, wrestling with comparisons, discouragement and unmet expectations. Small Church BIG Deal helps pastors deal with the negative thoughts and feelings that lead to discouragement and prescribes a new metric for ministry success. What if pastors embraced the church they have instead of wishing for something the world says is bigger and better? Chris Vitarelli's perspective on small church ministry and its practical implications provide easy to implement strategies for ministry in the small church.
