Biblically, the measure of a man’s character and ministry effectiveness is his family. This being the case, Wilson is second the none. The emphasis on family, community, worship and education is truly remarkable. They’re doing something special in Moscow.

What's the BIGGEST challenge in leading a small church? Arguably, it's YOUTH and CHILDREN's ministry. This is a problem every small church pastor faces. Youth ministries are necessary for survival and growth but they're hard to build from scratch. But it's not impossible!

If your church wants to reach addicts, starting a Celebrate Recovery and saying, "Y'all come" won't work. Addiction effects every community, and churches have the answer. Yet, MOST churches don't know what to do. But, you can begin a thriving recovery ministry. Here's how. 🧵

@D_B_Harrison I think you’re right. It’s not the church’s mission to change the culture. When people get saved, they contribute to positive cultural change as a result of their conversion and discipleship. But to make cultural changes apart from salvation is missing the point.

During the Reformation, the reformers put the pulpit over and above the communion table, because the preaching of God's word must be central. That's your first order of business. Preach excellent, gospel centered, biblically based, life changing sermons.

When I arrived at my church, they sang Happy b-day before service to whoever had a b-day that week. The person had to stand in front and be sung to. It cost me, but I had to get rid of it. You can't set the tone for serious worship or attract new guests with such things.

What is replanting? Replanting is when a healthy church helps restart a dying church. The dying church is tired, out of resources, and closure seems inevitable. The healthy church provides leaders, a core team, resources, joins the dying church and it thrives once again.

I oversee our jail ministry. I got this letter yesterday and it hit me hard. I was this man. He’s 25 and been in and out of jail since graduating HS. Drugs dominated his life. I’m so thankful the Lord saved me at age 21. I was hopelessly lost. Pray for this man. His name is Eric.

Christ is a better source of assurance than my own transformation. I find comfort and confidence in Him, His work and His promises more than my own changed life. As I’ve grown in faith, growth seems to have slowed down. In the beginning it was rapid and radical. Now it’s normal
