Subject: Why isn't my church growing in numbers? |
Bible Note: Hello rickck..., Doc's point is an excellent one. My opinion is that a good number of Christians who truly love the Lord and want to do His will and further His kingdom end up sitting on the side-lines willing, but waiting for the coach (pastor) to send them on the field. Truth is, the owner of the team has already assigned positions and called the plays. More of us need to be practicing obedience individually instead of waiting frustratingly for someone else to take the lead. I count myself among those so please don't be offended. I've heard it said that revival will not occur in the church until it occurs in individuals. I'm not one for cheap talk and slogans, but I believe there is some truth to that. Hope this is helpful, Jeff |
