Closing 16 churches each day, is it not insanity to continue following in the failed lecture model of the European church? As we continue with the homiletic lecture model that eventually left their cathedrals vacant, why should we expect to receive different results? See Ezekiel 34:1-16. Jesus used preaching in PUBLIC to pique the ineterest of people and draw them in closer for the deeper conversations. His conversational model with the 12 during the week and in the synagogues on the sabbath is relational and transformational. Why don't we use THAT model? We are a FREE resource to help your church rediscover it.
We do not have a word for it in English. The Hebrew word that changes everything about discipleship, church, and what it truly means to follow Jesus:
“Something must be wrong with our approach. Let’s go back to the era of Jesus to contemplate what we may be missing.”— Ricky Kroeger, One Kingdom Worldwide
