Opis

This book provides insights to church, association and convention leaders concerned for the future-for the effectiveness of the organizational health to carry out the Great Commission of Jesus Christ. The author desire is to assist leaders of each of these entities in understanding its organizational history in order to diagnose unhealthy issues and bring about renewed vitality. The revitalization of the association can be the starting point for African-American Baptist church and convention sustaining growth numerically, financially and spiritually. Leaders will discover how to restore churches, associations and conventions to a vital and viable level to address the lack of trained leaders, the loss of large segments of age groups, the lack of mission education, discipleship, saving youth from crime, drugs, etc. and strategies for evangelism and mission in action. It is a model of revitalization that calls for personal and organizational change by clarifying the purpose, creating and expanding structures, and examining ways leaders are chosen for service. It examines socio-economic and racial reconciliation issues that undermine the gospel integrity and revitalization of the church as the Kingdom of God on earth.
