Why Crowds Don’t Equal Church Growth — And What Does (Church Planting 101 Focus)

🔥 What if church growth wasn’t about filling seats… but sending people?

In this episode of the Plant & Lead Podcast, I’m sharing why discipleship—not just attendance—has to be the goal.

We’ll talk about:
✅ How to shift from crowds to commissioning
✅ Why multiplying leaders creates long-term impact
✅ How to build systems that prioritize life change over event hype
✅ The real power of relationships in transforming your church and your community

If you’re tired of just trying to get more people in the room and ready to build something deeper, healthier, and more mission-focused — this episode is for you.
