We celebrate episode 500 with donuts and a discussion on why churches are really cranking up their intentional outreach this year.

Some highlights from today’s episode include:

• Easy church growth due to reaching cultural Christians is no longer viable for churches.
• Churches have moved away from programmatic outreach and evangelism but are still looking to and relying on tools to help them reach non-Christians.
• Too much church outreach is not tied closely enough to evangelism and reaching non-Christians.
• Thank you listeners for 500 episodes of Rainer on Leadership.

The five reasons that we discuss are:

1. They understand the implications of the death of cultural Christianity.
2. Inertia requires a major push to overcome.
3. New tools will emerge.
4. Many churches will re-engage attendance growth.
5. It will become an accountability issue for church leaders.
