We’ve heard church attendance is down globally in the wake of the pandemic.

Per Gallup, in the United States, just 22% of people say they attend church every week.

That’s down from 32% in 2000.

We talked last week to General Lyndon Buckingham, the international leader of The Salvation Army, about this trend and what he makes of it.

And while The Salvation Army hasn’t been wholly immune to this—there are locations where we're seeing the opposite.

And we want to take you to one of them today.

The Ray and Joan Kroc Corps and Community Center in Phoenix saw a 112% increase in Sunday morning meeting attendance from 2019 to 2023.

So what’s going on at the Kroc?

Captains Dustin and Caroline Rowe are the corps officers, or pastors, of the Phoenix Kroc Center. They’re on the show today to share more about their community, their congregation and their perspective on growing a church.
