About this title

Synopsis

Christ's church in America desperately needs to be revived spiritually. By most estimates, more than 70 percent of all Christian churches in the U.S. are stagnant or dying. They are stuck in survival mode and unable to fulfill their calling. The answer to this dilemma lies in a simple but profound truth: the systemic issue for congregational vitality is always spiritual-it's a matter of the heart. The Heart of the Matter is a comprehensive model for congregational spiritual renewal that is simple, succinct, and biblical. Like a good parable, it builds a bridge from personal spiritual transformation to collective spiritual transformation. It offers a new paradigm that is neither a programmatic solution nor a theory of change management. Rather, it is a transformational process that parallels our own individual discipleship journeys. A TCP Leadership Series title.
