The July-August 2023 issue of Outreach magazine looks at what life is like ministering in a small church. In “Leading Local,” five pastors share their experiences heading up a small church and where they find encouragement. “A Big Footprint in Small Places” tells the story of how rural church pastors are networking to plant churches. Bree Mills explains why cultural shifts in the West are driving the growth of microchurch movements. Finally, we talk with Dallas Jenkins, the creator, director and co-writer of the hit show The Chosen.
