* It's good to suffer loss, for it draws me to the Cross where God's loss is more than what anyone ever lost. * We cannot hear what the stories of the Bible are saying until we hear them as stories about ourselves. * Let go of control. * Trust God. Thank God. Think about God. Talk to God. Talk about God.

Why Churches Die

Why
do churches die? Thom Rainer's list:
(1) because they refuse to admit they’re sick,
(2) they don’t take sufficient responsibility,
(3) they are too inwardly focused,
(4) they want to return to the glory days,
(5) they are waiting for the super pastor,
(6) they are unwilling to change.
