Abstract
After surveying the theology and literature related to church mergers this article reports on the case studies of four recent mergers in the Queensland Baptist context. The research assesses how successful the church mergers have been, what were the motivators for the mergers, how were the obstacles overcome and what success-factors can be confirmed and/or developed. The article concludes with recommendations for congregations undertaking this difficult but rewarding task.
