Have you ever worried about declining attendance at church services, or at other organizations you deem important and worthy?
I share ideas in an article published in the November Christian Science Journal that can conquer those fears and render them harmless. You can find the article online at this link, “When the numbers are down.”
Beautiful, Evan. Thank you!
Our little branch church may be small in numbers at this time, but it is big on it’s love and commitment to Christian Science. Thanks for the encouraging, thought strengthening Truth, Evan. Susan M
It’s is its above
I once heard Mark Swinney ( I think it was) say at a Lecture
“One with God is not just a majority, but is a monopoly”
As Susan M says illustrates above,, it’s not numbers, but the spiritual desire to serve God put inti practice that is the most important thing. Mrs. Eddy instructs us not to count
the numbers in ur churches, and we can now see why.
dear Evan, thank you very much, however regrettably I can’t open the whole article.

“Numbers may be down, but God’s power is forever up” I love this, Evan. What a great article!
I was so inspired by the article “When the numbers are down” that I shared it at the Wednesday testimony meeting at church. It so answered my need not to be impressed or depressed with numbers. I have learned that it is quality not quantity that is important. This was brought home to me when few people were showing up to play doubles tennis. I came to understand to be grateful for those who showed up. There were times when we had a huge crowd but the joy was missing and times when a few showed and we were happier. Hymn 224 reminds us that God is our best our ever friend and Mis 151: God is man’s only relative on earth and in heaven. The right ideas are always present because God is omnipresent. Cheers to all.
A beautiful article. Thank you Evan.
