Why do some churches thrive and play vital roles in their communities and others struggle to retain members and stay financially sound? How can churches today build on their strengths as they move forward to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century?

The Rev. Dr. Kennon Callahan identifies the twelve essential characteristics of successful, growing churches and offers all congregations a way to unlock their potential for effective ministry. St. Luke's has been examining these twelve keys and presents some of them here to enhance your understanding of how our church is seeking to find its way in this new century.
