Faithful Finish: The Story and Steps of a Local Church Closure

Researchers agree the American Church is shrinking rapidly.[1] In 2021 Lifeway Research concluded a study showing approximately 4,500 churches closed[2] prior to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Since then, the rate of closure has only increased.

In Faithful Finish, Pastor Chris Sherwood (D.Min, M.Div.) tells the story of walking his local church through the painful procedure of closure.
