What if I told you that the average churches retention rate of unchurched, first-time visitors is less than 3% . . . would that shock you?
I can’t speak for every church across the world, but in my 14 years of pastoral ministry (plus the 19 where I grew up in a pastor’s home) this has been my experience.
In fact, I started keeping my own records about 10 years back and guess what I discovered . . . it’s less than 3%.
