Dr. Flavil Yeakley, Freed-Hardeman "Presentation on Youth", enero, 2008.
According to Flavil Yeakley, who presented this material at FHU recently, one can say these things about churches of Christ:
12th largest religious group in America
6th fastest growing church in America
4th in the nation in the total number of congregations
5th in the nation in number of counties in which there is a congregation
1st in the nation in distribution of congregations
1st in the nation in weekly attendance
According to a survey by Barna about five years ago, churches of Christ were first in donations among religious groups (for our size).When you consider that we lost only 69 churches (2000-2006) and yet are 4th in the number of congregations throughout the US is rather remarkable.The call for changing doctrine or die is premature...
