Berea Future
We had an all-congregation meeting on Sunday, 11/9, with Dr. Phillip Johnson from the District office. We learned about congregational lifecycles and revitalization strategies for churches on the "downside" of the cycle. Unlike people, congregations don't have a maximum lifespan, but to regain their youth, they need to regain their sense of mission and turn their attention outward. It's not always comfortable, but it can be exciting, and it aims at fulfilling our Lord's great commission.- If you didn't fill out the yellow "My Place in the Berea Future" card, please get one from the tract rack, complete it, and return it to Paul Hickey.
- Here's Paul's presentation (PDF slides).
- Here's Phil's presentation (PDF slides).
- Here's a video recording of the meeting.
