Tom and his congregation had to rebuild, and they used the principles in the book of Nehemiah to get back on their feet. Now a teaching pastor at Saddleback Church, Tom will help you discover seven principles for putting it together again that will give you the direction you need to get rolling on that fresh start. Holladay will walk you through seeing every problem as an opportunity, facing the obstacles head on and taking your first step, knowing how to expect and reject opposition, build on your success, and dedicating yourself to the One who rebuilds our souls. The task of starting again can seem impossible. And sometimes you just need to rebuild your confidence and regain a sense of purpose. If you’re trying to find the emotional energy, but you just don’t have it in you, let Holladay encourage you. He understands how difficult and rewarding the business of rebuilding is. This book is your encouraging how-to guide to starting again and stepping into a better future.

Nothing seemed any different from a thousand other nights. But what was about to happen would transform not only their lives but billions of other lives as well. The world would never be the same again. Regardless of your religious background, you need to know how the three purposes of Christmas solve your three greatest needs.

This is a five-point strategy for attracting and spiritually maturing the unchurched, from the pastor of Saddleback Church.

Research indicates that most churches experience initial growth followed by stagnation and decline. Since 1991, while the North American population grew by 15%, the number of "unchurched" individuals surged by 92%. Many large churches that thrived in the 1950s and '60s now operate below capacity. To address this issue, authors Ed Stetzer and Mike Dodson conducted a survey of 300 churches across ten denominations that successfully revitalized after periods of decline. Their findings reveal an effective method for reinvigorating congregations. Endorsements highlight the book's value: Dr. Rick Warren praises Stetzer's extensive experience, calling the book a beneficial resource for churches. Thom S. Rainer emphasizes its biblical foundation, thorough research, and practical application, asserting it should reach countless church leaders. Elmer Towns appreciates the balanced approach of combining research with actionable advice. Leonard Sweet regards it as the most helpful work on church revitalization in recent years. Jack W. Hayford notes its grounding in essential principles for revitalizing congregations. Gary L. McIntosh commends the authors for their rigorous research and practical guidance. Bill Easum encourages leaders of non-growing evangelical churches to engage with the material, suggesting it could also benefit mainline churches.

Kniha, ktorá chce pomôct každému, kto sa zaujíma o svoj cirkevný zbor, jeho budovanie a rast. Rick Warren nám ponúka niekolko jednoduchých princípov, ktoré nám pomôžu budovat cielavedomý zbor, zasiahnut ludí v našom okolí, ci viest ludí k osobnej zodpovednosti a službe druhým, ai. Po 16 rokoch kazatelskej služby sa pre mna konferencia s Rickom Warrenom O cielavedomom zbore v Birminghame v júli 2005 stala jedinecným napomenutím, povzbudením a usmernením. Uvedomil som si svoje mnohé chyby pri budovaní zboru a tiež, že to na com záleží nie je pocet ludí, ale zdravie spolocenstva. Pretože zdravé veci rastú! A duchovné zdravie súvisí s vyváženostou piatich zámerov, pre ktoré je cirkev tu na zemi. Túžim vidiet telo Kristovo, (Jeho cirkev), ako vstane, odloží všetko, aby sa venovala tomu, co je klúcové a co prinesie slávu jej nebeskému Ženíchovi.? Mgr. Tomáš Kriška

Kazateľ Rick Warren (autor bestselleru Život s jasným cieľom) a jeho cirkevný zbor sa s pomocou odborníkov z oblasti fitness a medicíny rozhodli pre zmenu životného štýlu. Výsledok prekvapil všetkých: 15 000 ľudí za jeden rok schudlo spolu 118 000 kíl. Ale zmeny sa neprejavili len na ručičke váh. Program Daniel: Zdravší život za 40 dní nie je len o zmene v stravovaní. Dosiahnite zdravý životný štýl optimalizáciou piatich základov – viery, stravy, pohybu, myslenia a priateľov. Keď sa sústredíte na týchto päť základov, váš život sa nezmení len na chvíľu, zmení sa navždy. Myšlienky z tejto knihy vás povzbudia k tomu, aby ste prehĺbili svoj vzťah s Bohom a vybudovali komunitu priateľov, s ktorými budete každý deň robiť zdravé rozhodnutia. Výsledok: váš život sa postupne zmení navonok aj zvnútra.

Kniha je určena každému, kdo by rád pomohl svému sboru při budování dobrých základů a růstu.
