I have attended little churches, medium churches, big churches and yes, even a mega church.
Since 1980, the number of evangelical megachurches in the United States has gone from 50 to 880 — and that number increases a few times every month according to the infographic below.
While this infographic below focuses a lot of attention on the pastor of the biggest church in the U.S. — Joel Osteen — it also lists a few other megachurches that are growing quickly.
Have you attended or do you attend any of the churches listed?

How big is your church?
Chances are, it’s bigger than my church here in Italy. 🙂

Attendance is a good measure of consumption, but not a good measure if commitment. I’m sure toilet paper sales are increasing as well, but nobody would claim that this indicates a greater level of commitment to toilet paper.
