Overview|Download
North America’s largest churches are showing a strong sense of resiliency in the midst of a struggling economy. The majority are growing numerically, their budgets and staffing levels have increased very modestly, and they show general optimism, though cautiously, toward 2011. These findings come from a Leadership Network survey of 253 churches with attendances of 1,000 and higher. A longer survey was fielded April-May 2010, and then a shorter follow-up survey was fielded October 2010.
