When Church Growth Creates Problems (S2 E5)

What happens when a church starts to grow—and growth creates new problems? In this episode of Sunday to Monday, we continue our series The Church Jesus Built by looking at Acts 6 and one of the early church’s first major growing pains. As more people came to Jesus, more needs emerged, tensions surfaced, and the way ministry happened had to change. We talk about why the mission of the church can’t depend on just a few people, the difference between being a consumer and a contributor, and why every follower of Jesus has a role to play. Growth may require new methods, new leaders, and even some uncomfortable change—but the mission stays the same. The church isn’t built around one pastor, one personality, or one program. We are the church—and we all have a part to play.
