Frequently Asked Questions
What is PresbyGrow?
PresbyGrow is the website for the Office of Church Growth of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). PresbyGrow is intended to be a storehouse of information and resources for anyone engaged in new church development, church growth, and/or congregation transformation. It is also our hope that this website will also be a way for you to connect with us at the National Office of the PC(USA) as well as other Presbyterians/Christians.
What’s the best way to “use” this website?
We like to think that PresbyGrow is pretty easy to navigate, but it is helpful to know the basic layout of the website in order that you may more effectively search for resources.
Most of the content on PresbyGrow is divided into three categories:
- New Churches
- Church Growth
- Transformation
Be aware, though, that there is usually “overlap” with the categories, and an article filed under “church growth” might also be found under “new churches” or “transformation.”
Each of these three categories can be found in the blue, orange, and green boxes on the home page. Clicking on each of the boxes will direct you to that specific page.
The “tabs” located in the green header are simply other ways to categorize information.
- Home
- About
- Calendar
- Resources
- Multimedia
- Connect
Each “tab” describes the type of information, though not the category (although, once you click on a tab, you’ll discover that each genre is subdivided into category). Make sense?
Or–you can always search terms in the “Google search” box, located on the left side of your screen.
If you need help finding anything, please contact us–we’re here to help you!
