     | 2,334 views

    Churches easily get struck in a rut and decline. John the Baptist serves as a model for vital ministry: focus on Jesus above all else.

    Last week we started looking at the ministry of John the Baptist. He was a prophet. He cared for the spiritual health of his nation with all of his heart.

    HoHum: Philip Yancey wrote in How I learned to stop hating and start loving the Psalms: “People around me seemed to use the book as a spiritual medicine cabinet. “If you feel depressed, read Psalm 37.” If you health fails, try Psalm 121.” That approach never worked for me. Instead, I would ...read more

    Did you know that only 15% of churches in America are healthy? Could God be asking us to change? If so, in what areas? How do we identify what God is wanting us to change?
