These are the Five Practices of vital, fruitful congregations. These ideas aren’t secret or new, but they are the practices that can lead to our growth and to growth in the life of our church. And they are the practices we will be focusing on for the next several weeks, beginning September 18 and ending November .
Just imagine what can happen if everyone in our congregation will spend five weeks—just thirty-five days—reading, praying, discussing, and focusing on these Five Practices. God can change individuals, entire families, and our whole church—thus changing the difference we can make in and beyond our surrounding community.
