According to the 2010 census, over half of the US lives in small towns and rural areas. With so many “small towns,” the average local jurisdiction population in the United States is 6,200. Even in ‘metro areas’ of one million or more, the average local jurisdiction is under 20,000! ARC believes every small town should have a great, life-giving church. There are unique characteristics and challenges to pastoring in a small town and the pastor who recognizes and capitalizes on them will lead a vibrant, growing and healthy church with tremendous influence in their region. This session includes a panel discussion with pastors from towns of less than 3,000 to more than 60,000.

Every church planter and pastor dreams big dreams! Every pastor also knows what it is like to get stuck. Then you can be at the end of one dream while staring up the mountain at another dream knowing that you have never been their before. When vision is fuzzy we can default to a plug and play ministry model or even worse we adopt the generic vision of another church. God wires each pastor and church to fulfill His purpose in unique and powerful ways. This APP Session will help you gain new tools you can take back to your leadership to develop a visionary path that will never cease inspiring and directing.
