Small churches

Dear Sir,
In
‘Growing
a
rural
church’
in
the
February issue of EN (an interesting article),
Chris Sinkinson talks about ‘critical mass’
and needing a certain number within a
church to be able to do useful gospel work.
He says: ‘Less than [in the region of 30 people] and we may lack the critical mass to
really be an effective church’.
Nothing to boast about...

When things appear to go wrong in your life, it's time to start praising God! It is very plain to me now that God was in control of the seemingly disastrous events in our children's lives.
I'd tried to bring our children up to believe in Jesus Christ as their saviour, but our church background was such that I'd never realised that mere assent isn't enough! However, in the autumn of 1995 we started going to a Grace Baptist church, where we began to receive thorough, Reformed, biblical teaching.
