Synopsis

When Churches Merge is a compelling vision for connecting churches and reviving relationship-centred mission. Sharing the author’s own experience of merging two Baptist churches into one across two sites, this book shows how earnest prayer, covenantal thinking and sacrificial giving can breathe new life into declining congregations and enrich those that are already growing.

In encouraging churches to discern God’s plan for them, When Churches Merge offers an alternative approach to more traditional growth models, emphasising the importance of putting relationships first. Blending honest reflections and biblical teaching with pastoral wisdom, and insights into legal, financial and organisational practicalities, it equips churches large and small to imagine new possibilities together.

At a time when the world is experiencing a renewed interest in faith, When Churches Merge offers a dynamic, viable and mission-minded response to what God is doing.
