Should We Want Big Numbers in Ministry?
Reporting “big numbers” (of baptisms, churches, etc.) seems to result in controversy, and many Christians are hesitant to openly pursue the salvation of multitudes of people. We can get disappointed when we aren’t seeing big numbers of people coming to Christ in our ministries, and wonder what we’re doing wrong. Jesse shares from 2 Cor. 4:15 (and several other Scriptures) God’s heart to have more and more worshippers, which should also be our heart, and how to shepherd our hearts when we aren’t seeing abundant fruit in our ministries.
