The daughters like to refer to things that are not working as “(Insert Subject)FAIL” Blogger and NewSpring Church Pastor Perry Noble recently developed a list of 15 Signs That A Church Is In Trouble.
Here are some of the ones that dug deeply into my consciousness:
#2 – When the church becomes content with merely receiving people that come rather than actually going out and finding them…in other words, they lose their passion for evangelism!
#5 – The church begins to view success/failure in regards to how they are viewed in the church world rather than whether or not they are actually fulfilling the Great Commission!
#6 – The leaders within the church cease to be coachable.
#9 – The church is reactive rather than proactive.
#13 – The church simply does not care about the obvious and immediate needs that exist in the community.
