As we begin to move into the twenty-first century, the church faces a great challenge with a world that is changing daily.  The society we live in needs a church that is alive, and with a changing world comes the demand for a vibrant, growing church. The church must grow spiritually,numerically, and financially to meet the demands that are around us.  The demonic forces are stronger today, so we must grow spiritually.  The world’s population is increasing at a rapid pace, so we must grow numerically.  The price we now pay to reach people is becoming expensive, so we must grow financially.  With growth comes blessings, God seems to always bless our efforts.  When people are growing, the church of God is alive and growing
