Essential Strategies For Leaders To Develop A Healthy Church, Angelo Desalles Logan Nov 2017

Essential Strategies For Leaders To Develop A Healthy Church, Angelo Desalles Logan

Doctoral Dissertations and Projects

Many churches are dying as they fail to grow and produce disciples. As with the human body, a church’s overall health must be maintained to operate effectively for the Kingdom. In today’s world, experts predict that nearly 4,000 churches will close every year in America, and well over 3,500 people will leave churches every single day.
