    Why the Adoption Language is Catching on in Church Replanting Jul 09, 2020
    Show notes

    We have begun to migrate from the word merger to adoption when talking about replanting churches. The language of adoption is stronger suited for the work occurring between churches, which is why adoption language is catching on.

    • It indicates one family who will welcome another.
    • It makes common sense to the church being adopted.
    • It really fits well with the family metaphor being used for churches.
    • It clearly defines the relationship between the two churches.
    • It defines a relationship based on love.

    Revitalize & Replant is sponsored by the North American Mission Board and ChurchReplanters.com. More than 10% of churches in North America are at risk of closing and the North American Mission Board is committed to reversing this trend by decreasing the death rate of existing churches while simultaneously increasing the birth rate of new churches.

    • The church has to gather somewhere.
    • Communities are impacted by church buildings.
    • It’s a matter of good stewardship.
    • Deficient buildings can be hazards to all and impediments to unbelievers.

    Making Changes in an Older Church: A Real Case Study of a Church That Was Started in 1875 Jun 18, 2020
    Show notes

    This story comes from a continuous conversation in Church Answers started on June 15, 2019. When the pastor was called to this rural church, the average attendance had declined to 275 and the church had $14 in the bank. The pastor has now been serving for 14 years, and the average attendance is 700.

    • Being honest and loving to the older members.
    • Preparing for a marathon instead of a sprint.
    • Remembering who the real enemy is.

    • Recognizing that such turnarounds encourage others and bring glory to God.
