so you're inferring the pastor doesn't preach well or go out for outreach to win souls?
Evangelism of a church is not only the pastors job... how many souls can he alone win....he has to drive his team.. assistant, pastors, deacons, workers.. etc

Perhaps he’s not actively involved in carrying is worker’s and members along in outreach...

Mayb he’s unlucky...

But I know for a fact that Some pastors don’t even have designated days for outreach as a church, let alone personal engagement....

every church has every reason to grow...if nations like United state and other western countries with large number of atheist still have large Christians, it’s easier in Nigeria, where almost every Tom is religious

His dual citizenship exist. And both countries have a right to him without interference. Nigeria has same right as UK does.
As long as the UK isn’t denying and Nigeria isn’t deny Kanu a fair trail...then what’s Nigeria afraid about....
But u and I know FG is bunch of rubbish..
This same country..we free bokoharam and Iswap, now we are flexing muscles at Kanu..

Well done

how do you expect a pastor to force someone to he'schurch after preaching to that person and person tells you he's attached to another assembly?
Force??
Who said anything about force??
People preach and invite...
If you invite preach regularly.. u will meet all kinds of people..
People that are tired of their church
People that don’t go to church
Muslims
Traditional worshippers
Etc...
U can’t always meet people that belong to other denomination...in fact some people belong to other denomination but haven’t really repented...when they hear message of repentance for you..they usually feel they can start coming to ur church... u don’t even have to beg or ask them....

see I’ve been there and I know for a fact that any church actively involved in evangelism/ outreach at least twice a week will grow

Oga not every soul a winner wins will worship at any winners chapel. Am only trying to make you see just a reason why maybe the growth was poor or low. Simple
Oh...so every body in the church including his church worker’s and members that go on outreach has been preaching to people that always go to their house or other church...

See, churches conduct audits..they ddnt just send this people away...It might also be that the church has been recording a significant drop in number as well....

I once relocated and attended the branch of my church in that state only for me to notice the pastor doesn’t even drive our usual Friday vigils and Friday/Saturday evening outreach..
The pastor was just lazy...always talking about giving him big coolers with meat when he comes to name your child at christening..

Someone eventually reported the branch and auditors came secretly to confirm..they eventually demoted the pastor to an assistant before sacking him.....

My point is it takes more than just money to sack pastors...

And I believe in such scenario, the birth place overrides that of where he naturalized. Nigerian owns him if debate was to come to the table and has every jurisdiction to prosecute him "WITHOUT" foreign intervention.
Where did U get the idea that the birth place of a person overrides the other citizenship?? On what grounds?? Quote the international law and where u got it from..

Becos a lawless nation like Nigeria wants to punish a person, u now want to assume his dual citizenship doesn’t exist?? Well done

So does it mean souls won are only in Winners Chapel?
How can you deduce this weird question from my comment...

There are millions of people and thousands of churches in Nigeria..every one doing their own outreach and making disciples of those they reach out to....I don’t even get where you are driving at..

Can you imagine what you are saying. You are literally comparing church to commercial entities and making it look like that's how it's supposed to be.
THAT IS WRONG. and it will always be wrong. The church is not a profit driven venture neither is it a money spinning Enterprise no matter how much your likes try to make it seem so. Why is it that anything black man touch always takes an unfortunate turn
U don’t know how to dialogue...
I never spoke about profit.. so I don’t know where u got that from...
If u don’t reach out people won’t come... how is that wrong??

Church growth can also be linked to how the pastor manages the church account, members and the church at large.


Maybe his actions were causing friction and affection the membership negatively.
Exactly what I was trying to say..
It can’t be all about money...

What the bible is preaching is winning souls, not winning members. If we can get people back to God and have righteousness in them, the denomination is not the matter. When you are more interested in what you have in terms of members and other things you have gone to be the rich man who is interested in himself only. Therefore we can say Heaven is far from you. Because if you say it is membership that is more important do we say that Heaven will be filled with Nigerians? As it stands now, Nigeria has the highest number membership in terms of going to Church.
So when the apostles that started the church won souls they ddnt make disciples of them and continue in fellowship daily?? They ddnt keep the numbers of their people at all?? Or u ddnt see increase in tacts and other letters of Paul??

So who were the people Paul and peter kept visiting in Macedonia, Rome,corinth, etc..

Second ...be true to urself ...u claimed I said membership is more important....when did I say so?? U can show me in my text without reconstructing or misinterpreting my statement....

U even said heaven is far from me...lol...u are just a funny human being...all this self righteous people

I don't understand this growth in population you people are forcing us to accept in a particular meaning..the direct meaning there is, the more the population the higher the money, this is simple logic I beg...
My point is it can’t be all about money...because church number increase or decrease doesn’t automatically always impact the money...
I’ve seen it before...and it’s becos the real heavy contributors in the church are usually less than 10%

A pastor of my church was transferred and later sacked because the population reduced continuously for 6months after he came...and during those period, financial position ddnt drop..because the larger contributors were still around..

With the number of churches booming all over?......, maybe the sacked pastors would've gone out to drag other church members to his own church to meet the target..... desperate people......
If it's not for the pocket/money how come the country is still poor/suffering despite all the churches around?.....

Life doesn't have a one-size-fits-all rule. You can invite 20 people today and 1 person or more will respond accordingly. Tomorrow, you can invite 50 and nobody will respond.

Active evangelism is encouraged but why not focus on building the ones you already have in your care first before “fishing” for others? Jesus Himself had a multitude in the beginning but at the end, the number was narrowed down 12, and one of them wasn't even genuinely saved.
Okay...who said they sacked only becos the church number ddnt go up...how are u sure the numbers he inherited ddnt increase...big churches do comprehensive audits...it’s takes more than ordinary lack of increase in offering to sack a pastor

Same way a pastor cannot force people to fellowship with him.
Yeah.but church growth success has been tested to work on the platform of continuous invitation....the fact is theses pastor that were sacked ddnt drive outreach enough...if you invite 20people everyday one will come...

it’s simple principle...companies out there use the same principle in marketing ...

Mr. Reno, can you link the fruitfulness of a tree to human attributes?
Is the pastor not bearing children?

Church growth? Financially or in population?

When some people left Jesus as he was preaching, did he drag them back? He even turned to the disciples and asked why they remained with him!

Winners must not mention money in that letter. Be fair, man.
I don’t think this is about money..

In winners, the main duty of resident pastor is church growth i.e in numbers of people...

the fact is...no pastor can force people to give...Increase in number of people doesn’t necessarily translate to increase in money...

For example...if number of women( mothers are on the increase in a particular month. Automatically that’s double or triple because mothers will come with kids... but that won’t mean increase in offering or tithe...as children don’t give...

A pastor can’t drag rich people to church or force them to give so really he has no control over increase in money....

My opinion shaa

Career › Re: Career Switch Dilemma by advanceDNA:
Moneywirer:
OK guys I'd keep it really short and precise.
My brother studied computer engineering. Truth be told he never really liked the course. He only studied the course because he thought he'd love it along the way and also he enjoys fiddling with tech stuff but that was never his passion. He recently finished his NYSC and is considering a masters in Business Management. I'm against it but he says it's what he wants to do and we all at home know he has always been inclined to business and has been passionate about it even as a kid.
Now my question is, is such switch really possible in any university??
Dude...at some point, we will need to know how to manage a business... whether on paper or via the apprentice route.....

I don’t think an MBA or business management course is a digression or a switch in career...at some level of your professional career, you will likely need an MBA..most top level managers have it whether it’s IT, banking, manufacturing etc..
