Dr. Bernard shared a very good word during our leader's meeting yesterday. Everything that God does is via a pattern based on a principle. Just as a human body is designed to renew itself, healing via nature's course, the same is true for an organisation, an organism aka church.
A church must be structured in a manner that it can renew itself from within. When an entity cannot renew itself from within, it will die. We move from one level to the next level in life's ladder through crisis. To a Christian, a crisis is not necessarily negative. We can be purified by crisis.
5 Elements of Renewal:
1. Personal Renewal
2. Relational Renewal
3. Purpose Renewal
4. Structural Renewal
5. Cultural Renewal
When these 5 elements are present, we know we are in a God-ordained revival!
