Is the church proactive or reactive? Do we preach judgement or grace? Do we truly believe all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God? Or do we act as if there are some who are so fallen they do not deserve the free grace and forgiveness of God?

I grew up hearing, when God closes one door, He opens another. Of course this was said during times of transition. But it always signified a new beginning our opportunity. If you have been following these post you know we have been looking at what constitutes a healthy church. More specifically we have been looking at the seven churches in Revelation, and learning from once healthy churches which were in danger of dying out.
