What if we could see how the LCMS is really doing — district by district?
Today, Pastor Tim Ahlman and Jack Kalleberg sit down with Pastor Jonathan Buescher, who compiled a comparative data study on all 35 LCMS districts — revealing surprising insights about membership, budgets, schools, and new church starts.
They explore:

- How funding and schools correlate with church vitality
- The future of circuits and district collaboration

- What the data means for pastors, lay leaders, and the future of the LCMS
