Cathedrals: a forgotten model for church growth

Pilgrim Uniting Church Adelaide has recently updated its strategic plan and clarified key directions. It is premised on the missional context of a church in the heart of the city, for the city. An article by Revd Dr Jane Shaw in the UK notes that attendance at cathedrals has grown 13% in the decade 2009-2019, and poses the question: why are church-plants seen as the only game in town when it comes to reversing decline in the church? Why not use a range of models? Her article is a helpful catalyst for discussion.
