How we measure “church” success:

Ministry by one gifted man who attracts fifty others to his “service” each Sunday morning …

That’s nice.

Ministry by one gifted man who attracts hundreds to his “service” each Sunday morning …

Now you’re talkin’!

Ministry by one gifted man who attracts thousands to his “service” each Sunday morning …

Mega success!!

How the New Testament measures church success:

Believers who gather together as a community, with each using their gifts …

For ministry one to another.
