(This Second one teaches me about A Healthy Church)
Chris.
A healthy and robust community or family Church does not just “happen”. It is the Believers’ responsibility to make it so. God’s Plan is that every Church that is opened in His Will and for His Glory should be a healthy Church. If we open a Church for other motives it will never be healthy. Time does not heal.
