Toward A Holistic And Postmodernal Theory Of Change: The Four-Forces Model Of Change As Reflected In Church Growth Movement Literature, Bob Whitesel Oct 2006

Toward A Holistic And Postmodernal Theory Of Change: The Four-Forces Model Of Change As Reflected In Church Growth Movement Literature, Bob Whitesel

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

The purpose of this present study is to form a background from Church Growth Movement literature against which might emerge a contemporary epistemology and model for theories of change and changing. And, since the cultural predilections of postmodernity heavily influence future strategizing, postmodern theoretical understandings will be sought.

The “Emotionally Relevant” Congregation, Goerge G. Hunter Iii Oct 2006

The “Emotionally Relevant” Congregation, Goerge G. Hunter Iii

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

The case for emotional relevance is more easily made than for cultural relevance. Simply stated, the emotional lives of a great many pre-Christian people (and many Christian people) are dysfunctional, out of control, and crippling their lives. We meet people (and families) every day whose lives are hijacked by powerful emotions they do not understand, and may even deny.


The Spirit Driven Church, Timothy Robnett, Allen H. Quist Oct 2006

The Spirit Driven Church, Timothy Robnett, Allen H. Quist

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

The authors focus on three initiatives of Christian leadership, all addressing the nature of the relationship between God and Christian leaders. For his part, God fills us with his Spirit, God calls us to walk in his Spirit, and God empowers Spirit-filled leaders to lead by the Spirit. For our part, we are to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind; we are to choose God as our source of our control rather than our own self-interest (i.e., our flesh); and we are to stay dependent on God for leading and empowering. Leaders are called to return to …

Sheep You Cannot Shear, D. Bruce Seymour Apr 2006

Sheep You Cannot Shear, D. Bruce Seymour

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

Do you have sheep like this in your flock? They come to church and feed with the other sheep, we guard them and make sure they stay healthy, but the church never gets any benefit from them. They are three-bags-full sheep, but the church never gets any wool. All their time, all their energy, all their talent is being given to someone else. Those sheep are part of your flock but they are sheep you cannot shear.


The State Of The Unions—Denominations In The 21st Century, Robert Wenz Apr 2006

The State Of The Unions—Denominations In The 21st Century, Robert Wenz

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

The denominational landscape in America is changing. It is no longer a landscape of blossoming and blooming. It is rather a landscape marked by withering, fallen petals, and some new and different shoots budding. Some denominations are merging or consolidating districts/regions/presbyteries, effectively reducing regional overhead. This serves to reduce the burden on churches to support both a national organization and a regional association. Increasingly, denominations are questioning the relative value and cutting their publications ministries.


The Work Of The Holy Spirit And Church Revitalization: Acts 2:42-2:47, Ray W. Ellis Apr 2006

The Work Of The Holy Spirit And Church Revitalization: Acts 2:42-2:47, Ray W. Ellis

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

The work of the Holy Spirit is vital to the revitalization of a local church. The entire process of revitalization is based on seeking spiritual health, prayer and the energizing work of the Holy Spirit. Without the presence of the Holy Spirit at work in the life and ministry of a local church all efforts are in vain. A local church may experience numerical gains in attendance, but without the ministry of the Holy Spirit the church will not experience redemptive, Kingdom of God growth.
