Does Your Church Want To Get Well?

Some churches suffer from a defeated attitude when Jesus calls us to take simple steps, not giant steps. We aren't on an escalator, but must move our legs to climb the stairs set before us.

Attended a confernece on recognizing, halting, and preenting decline in the local church this past Saturday. In reading the foreword to the book "Reaching the summit" by George L.
