Church growth is high on our agenda as a diocese. How can our churches grow in changing times? Stepping Stones for Growth is a toolkit to help churches think about this in new ways.
Stepping Stones for Growth is a series of six useful videos, exploring ways we can grow in numbers and faith, in our own diverse settings and across our different church traditions.
Stepping Stones is suitable for use by individuals, church groups, inter-church groups and online events and services. It doesn’t assume any technical or specialist knowledge, so connects with a broad range of people.
