Living stones 2
The building project has been an amazing work of God. But there are more important things in the church than bricks and mortar. And they are us, the living stones.
It seems to me [Raymond] that God is saying that he wants to do something more with those living stones, in the future. What that is exactly to be, we do not know - and we are not going to try to second-guess God.
Is ongoing growth possible?
Why do churches stop growing? Is there a natural plateau? Some churches slide back slowly. Some split. But many remain at more or less the same level year after year.
Somehow, it doesn't seem to be the New Testament model.
We want to explore the possibility of continuing to grow, and the reasons why we may not continue to grow at our day conference on the morning of Saturday, March 7th when Alan Hawker will be giving the keynote address.
He is always worth hearing.
