Personal Generosity

Obeying God in Spite of the Data
What we've learned: "Data has a seat at the table"—it's something we say a lot here at Life.Church. The distinction is that even though we place a high value on collecting and analyzing data (that's why we created Church Metrics , after all), it still only has one seat at our decision-...
