Rural Revival: Growing Churches in Shrinking Communities
Most of the sixteen million Southern Baptists were classified in a recent news article as living in either suburban, small town, or rural areas.  Phillip B. Jones, director of the Strategic Planning Support Team of the North American Mission Board, stated: "Most Southern Baptist congregations are small and are located in small towns and rural areas. Over a third are located in rural or open country." He also observed, "Slightly less than a third are located in small towns and villages of less than 10,000 population."
Can rural churches experience significant growth? The answer is a resounding, "YES!" This book defines and applies the four major factors that distinguish growing churches from the rest of the pack.
A companion volume to "Rural Pastor's Handbook: A How to Guide to Leading Your Flock". Â The handbook is designed to help you, the rural pastor, improve your prayer life and your preaching, grow your church, and deal with the day-to-day opportunities and problems that you will ultimately face.
