ChatGPTDid you ever feel that your leadership style worked best with certain church sizes? Well, research says your hunch is right. In fact, I asked my students in a graduate course on leadership to create a chart on "what to do and what not to do" to grow churches beyond certain size ranges.
The students had been reading dozens of books and articles on the topic for a couple months. I edited and added to their responses to ensure the most relevant insights remained.
