When a church is no longer willing to take risks for fear of losing people or losing momentum it begins to rely on past success rather than the cornerstone it was built on, Christ.
Episode Notes:
There is a fundamental problem with church = brand. The church = people and people are unique.
Obstacles that church leaders used to face head-on become obstacles that strike fear when a church has become too big to fail.
God is zealous for you.
A zealous God isn’t interested in status, size, or success. He is interested in your soul.
The soul immobilized by fear of change cannot be zealous for the things of God.
