Dying to Live: Revitalizing Your Declining Church

Have you heard the prediction that 100,000 U.S. churches may close by 2050? How sad, if true. Why do some dying churches turn around and others close their doors? What makes the difference?Dying to Live is the story of what a real dying church did to survive and the process God chose to revive the congregation, which led to the church experiencing a robust God led revitalization. Within the descriptions of what took place for a 20-member church in Wyandotte, Michigan, you will find timeless biblical principles that can be extracted and tailored to your own church's situation.It is true, only God can grow a church. However, this is not just another book about how to grow your church. It is rather a book about watching God revitalize his church throughout salvation history through revivals recorded in Scripture; in places and times where he called his people to repentance and a renewed faith. If you are looking for such an experience in your life or the life of your church, Dying to Live can be used by your leadership team to study and discuss the possibilities. May the Lord use it to inspire your church to find a way to experience a second life-cycle and thereby thrive again.
