Steps to revitalization

Return to the Lord

Return to the Lord

Return to the Lord

Revelation 2:1-7

The first step to Church Revitalization is the people of God returning to God. This is demonstrated through a church praying and seeking God's Great Commission strategy to impact lostness in their community context.

Listen to God

Return to the Lord

Return to the Lord

Nehemiah 8:1-8

The process of preaching for revitalization is best accomplished through a sermon-based small group disciple-making methodology. Modeling Nehemiah 8, moving the congregation from the crowd to the community and ultimately to a core group is essential.

Obey God

Return to the Lord

Obey God

Matthew 28:18-20

The Great Commission establishes the growth strategy for every church. When a church prayerfully seeks God's direction, is faithful to proclaim the gospel and grow internally, the church is prepared to make Jesus known in the community.
