In the present day 3 trends have begun to shape church growth and will continue to do so into 2023:

1) Technology-driven Innovations – As technology continues evolving it’s becoming more accessible for churches of all sizes as well as individuals within congregations, allowing them greater opportunities than ever before when connecting with one another. This includes cloud services such as file sharing & collaboration tools that enable members from different locations work together easily on projects; audio/visual systems enabling remote worship experiences including sermons delivered in real-time over zoom; social media platforms like Facebook Live aiding outreach efforts by broadcasting events any congregation can join worldwide - just to name some examples!

2) Socioeconomic Consciousness – There are growing calls among Christians everywhere towards living out their faith through tangible acts based upon economic justice principles rather than simply rhetoric alone. This results in higher engagement amongst nonbelievers outside traditional Christian circles who often come from marginalized communities due socioeconomic disparities between classes. Such shifts give rise for deeper connections with those less privileged hence increasing our collective chances of success at introducing God's Word during moments where people may need Him most  (i.e.: a financial crisis).

3) Cultural Relevance – As the Church continues to grow on either side of 2023 and beyond, one thing we must keep in mind is that an intentional effort needs to be made towards making our faith relatable within every culture. This will require us looking for alternative methods when presenting Christian doctrine such as utilizing modern storytelling techniques for millennials or incorporating more technology into services/sermons geared at younger generations who are used to living their lives online. Additionally attention should also be paid with respect how best serve those from different backgrounds like identifying issues impacting other societies & cultures then prayerfully developing ministries built upon addressing these concerns even if your own congregation doesn’t experience them directly  (e.g.: Anti-Racism initiatives involving members coming together regardless of where they live). 

By considering all three trends above church leaders can begin formulating concrete steps necessary implement each strategy effectively including: creating task forces dedicated researching which tools would benefit everyone; collaborating across denominations to learn what works well elsewhere while minimizing competition between churches; seeking out partnerships with community organizations; setting up workshops to help bridge divides through understanding similarities rather than differences.
