Abstract

The purpose of this project was to study four evangelical denominations in the Philippines to ascertain their strategies which have produced significant church growth during the period of 1972-1982. Each of these groups implemented one or more church growth programs during this ten-year period. The study of these groups showed strengths and weaknesses which are reflected in the projected four-year plan of church growth for the Free Methodists. Part I covers the development of Christianity in the Philippines beginning with the Spanish entrance in 1517 and continuing through World War II; part II gives an in-depth study of the development of the Free Methodist Church in the Philippines; part III studied the individual church growth programs of other related denominations; and part IV compares the different strategies and assimilates their strengths into a workable program of church growth for the Free Methodist Church in the Philippines. This program includes goal-setting, training, evangelism, incorporation of believers, and church planting.
