Book excerpt: R.E.S.C.U.E. is a response to the whys in church life: Why do the majority of churches have only half or less members attend on the Lords Day? Why have approximately 40% of pastors been involved in affairs and 50% of their marriages ended in divorce? Why is there infighting in the church and why are there so many church splits? Why are there so many pharisaical people in churches? Why is the power of the Holy Spirit absent in churches? Why is Biblical truth watered down? Why is pastor or elder leadership not trusted? Why do congregations think they can lead themselves? Why isnt the church reaching more lost souls? Why is church discipline off most church radars? Why is the average percentage of giving per member only between 1 and 3 percent? Why is a pastors tenure only two to four years? Why do churches fear change? After 33 years of ministry overseeing all sizes of congregations, I have dealt with those whys. If churches do not address the whys, many will sink into the ecclesiastical graveyard or remain afloat in stagnate waters. I believe R.E.S.C.U.E. can navigate churches to be transformed into an impactful and fruitful body of believers that glorifies our Lord!
