What change would a leader and church need to make for a congregation, denomination or movement to grow by five percent annual conversion growth.

The Gospel Coalition pulled together a mini summit of evangelical movement leaders from across Australia in June.

That gathering set an aspirational goal of doubling the number of evangelicals over twenty years.

They said a key way to do it is by pursuing a target of seeing five percent of the average attendance saved each year.

David Jensen leads the Evangelism part of the Department of Evangelism and New Churches in the Sydney Anglican Church.

Chris Braga is senior pastor of Grace West Church at Glenmore Park in Western Sydney.
