About this listen
In this episode, Rob Skinner sits down with Kevin Miller to talk about the upcoming Church Builders Conference—and why now is the time to bring the conversation about church growth back to the forefront.
Kevin shares the heart behind hosting a conference focused on the spread of the gospel, not competition, pressure, or numbers—but healthy, faithful growth rooted in unity, humility, and biblical conviction. Together, Rob and Kevin address why growth has become a complicated topic in many churches, how past wounds and unhealthy practices created fear, and why avoiding the subject altogether isn't the answer.
They also unpack the remarkable story of the Boston Church, a nearly 50-year-old church that plateaued for decades and is now experiencing renewed momentum, revival, and conversion growth—without shortcuts or hype. Kevin explains how health and growth must go together, why churches of all sizes can grow again, and how leaders can move forward with faith rather than fear.
This episode gives a behind-the-scenes look at:
-
The vision and purpose of the Church Builders Conference
-
Why growth and health are not opposites—but inseparable
-
How unity between elders, evangelists, and leaders fuels momentum
-
Why isolation keeps churches stuck
-

Whether you lead a large church, a small church, a campus ministry, or you're an aspiring leader, this conversation is an invitation to dream again, talk openly about growth, and believe God can still move powerfully today.
