GOD IS NOT DONE WITH YOUR CHURCH.
Recent studies show that the great majority of churches are either declining or plateaued. Specifically speaking there has been an average net loss of 3,500 churches each year over the last twenty-plus years. Of the remaining churches, 88 to 91 percent of them are dying. Just within the Southern Baptist Convention, 800 to 900 churches die every year.
Post-Covid numbers indicate that 10,000 to 15,000 churches in the United States will close their doors in the next year.
While these are alarming statistics, Lebanon Baptist Church, in conjunction with the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina and the Piedmont Baptist Association, is committed to helping churches revitalize and thrive within this current post-pandemic climate.
One way Lebanon Baptist church is assisting churches, pastors, and church leaders this year is by offering a one day church revitalization conference called [RE]VITALIZE, which will point your church to reclaiming God's glory this year.
