What Dying Churches and Vibrant Church Plants Need to Hear, by Carey Nieuhof
What if the greatest kingdom growth opportunity was right under our noses?
In this eye-opening and passionate video, Carey Nieuwhof exposes a critical disconnect in the church today: dying churches with buildings, money, and empty pews — and exploding church plants overflowing with people but lacking space. He challenges church leaders to reimagine legacy, mission, and stewardship through the lens of radical generosity and kingdom-minded partnership.
Carey outlines five hard truths:
Many dying churches have lost sight of mission in favour of method.
Too often, dollars are valued more than making disciples.
Style differences create division rather than intergenerational mentoring.
Lead pastors may resist transition for financial reasons.
Some leaders fear life after ministry and don’t know what comes next.
This message aligns deeply with the purpose of ChurchSpaces.ca: to connect available church properties with churches ready to reach the next generation. Whether you’re a growing church looking for space, or a legacy church ready to reimagine your impact — this video will stir conviction, compassion, and vision.
