Rick Warren maintains in "The Purpose-Driven Church" that growth is something God gives, and that our best strategy is to become a "healthy" church - a people that live for His purposes. Then, growth will come because God sends it.
While probably not intended to back up Warren's thesis, Henry and Richard Blackaby (Henry being the author of "Experiencing God") write in "Spiritual Leadership" (p. 126):
Certainly church growth is inevitable in a healthy church, as the Book of Acts clearly exemplifies.
