Synopsis

'Sheep swapping.' 'Shuffling of the saints.' Whatever you call it, many churches are growing only because Christians transfer from one church to another. What's more, many churches aren't growing at all. The problem, according to authors, Dann Spader and Gary Mayes, is that too many church calendars are filled with outdated, mediocre programs that have become more of a burden than a blessing. That, coupled with the fact that these programs minister almost exclusively to Christians, leaves little for the non-Christian 'seeker' to get excited about.

Growing a Healthy Church is not a list of trendy new programs for your church agenda. It is a journey of rediscovery. Spader and Mayes look closely at the four stages of spiritual growth in relation to outreach. Using the innovative 'M-level' system, these gifted men show how a church can minister to all individuals regardless of their levels of maturity in potential service. This helps eliminate the mistakes of forcing new Christians into service that may overwhelm them or may leave the mature Christian unchallenged. Proven successful through SonLife and churches who have used this system, this resource will help you focus on the simplicity of Christ's ministry, enabling you to build an effective discipling strategy for your church.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

"Thou Shalt Not Be
A Passive Parent!"

New moms and dads always have the same reaction: "I had no idea it would be this hard!"  But you can make it a little easier--and a lot more rewarding--simply by following The 10 Commandments of Parenting.

If you're feeling overwhelmed by it all, if your kids are headed in the wrong direction, or you just need a refresher of what matters most, this could be the turning point you've been praying for.  And is you're a brand new parent, you'll thank God for an opportunity to build your child's character on solid ground.

In words that are clear, simple, and sometimes humorous, Ed Young draws from decades of counseling and raising his own children to help you create a biblical foundation for life's greatest challenge and most important calling.
