Drawing on extensive, broad-based, and well-designed research, as well as stories and anecdotes, Beyond Megachurch Myths dispels popluar myths about megachurches while highlighting the diversity within the megachurch phenomenon. Defining a megachurch as a Protestant church that averages at least 2000 total attendees in their weekend services, Scott Thumma and Dave Travis reveal what these churches are and are not, why they are thriving, what their members say about their experiences, and why they have many valuable lessons to teach smaller churches.

What's Next? Every church pastor and board has to be ready to address the question of what's next for their church. The last era of their church won't look like the next. What's Next 2020 helps these leaders think about some of the issues and challenges that must be addressed in the near future by every church in the U.S. Short enough to be read in one sitting, substantive enough to provide for great conversations among staffs, boards and key leaders, What's Next 2020 lays the groundwork for positive change in your church to productively address a new season for your church.
