Building Healthy Churches - Part 1

Part 1 of 11 from our course Building Healthy Churches, from LeaderSource’s February 2020 team training. Jesus’ purpose is to build His Church. That must be our purpose: to work in the building of His Church. Just because we have a church doesn’t mean it is His; and just because we are involved in a lot of religious activity doesn’t mean that He is building His Church. Our purpose must be to work in the building of His Church. The simplicity of the New Testament pattern of planting churches stands in bold contrast to the complexity of our modern patterns in many countries. Moreover, their extraordinary success also stands in contrast to ours. To the extent that church planting movements in China, Africa, India, South America and other places have followed the New Testament pattern, they have also been blessed with a similar measure of success. To rediscover the simple New Testament pattern is the hope of this course. In this video, Malcolm unfolds the centrality and nature of the Church.
