Revitalization

Red Hills Southern Baptist Church in Enoch, UT, wasn’t ever going to be a traditional revitalization.

I narrowed the process of church recalibration down to four phases.

Turning a country-club-style church into a church on a mission.

What makes a pastor or a church planter great at what they do is not always the same as what allows a church revitalizer to excel.

There is nothing more exciting than a ministry that demonstrably requires the resurrection power of Jesus Christ from day one.

God is using the revitalization of the church to demonstrate his glory.

I asked if they were ready to see God do something new. When they affirmed that they were, I told them that we would be changing absolutely everything.

We need to patiently endure as leaders. Don’t give up.

If you went into ministry for everyone to like you, this was a poor decision.

God works through people and churches who depend on him.
