Show Notes

Mark Clifton and Mark Hallock discuss some tips from Thom Rainer on church revitalization.

  1. Substantive changes in a church typically don’t hold until has been at a church at least 4-5 years.
  2. The most common way to face reality in a church is to look at a 10-year attendance pattern.
  3. Revitalization is not something that happens with the snap of a finger.
  4. You don’t revitalize a church in your power. You do it through God’s power.
  5. There are a lot of pastors and church leaders who just don’t want to ask for help.
  6. If there were no risk in church revitalization, every church would be revitalized.
  7. Don’t get into revitalization if you’re afraid to lead by faith.
