Proven strategy to turn your visitors into church members Churches enjoy growing their community by sharing worship and ministries for furthering God's Kingdom. They love having first-time visitors, giving them gifts, acknowledging them, and extending warm welcomes-but what happens next is crucial, and almost all churches fail at turning new visitors into church members. Author Richard Varnell applies a unique combination of Biblical principles and strategic business analysis and methodologies to craft an effective church growth approach that turns first-time visitors into church members. Based on Christ's own plan for His followers, Varnell takes readers step-by-step through a clearly defined process that includes templates for readers to use when following up with new visitors. This proven strategy will bring fresh souls into the church while harnessing their unique spiritual gifts and resources to expand the impact they have on the surrounding communities.
