Will Your Church Survive? Gene Keith

Between 6,000 and 10,000 churches in the U. S. are dying each year. That means around 100-200 churches will close this week. What's going on? In our opinion, very little that goes on in the average church today is found in the New Testament. The most radical are the churches with smoke machines, flashing lights, and people falling on the floor laughing in the spirit or being slain in the spirit. The word pulpit is not even found in the New Testament and yet we call it the sacred desk. Open your Bible and try to find any references to pews, sanctuaries, cathedrals or stained -glass windows. Search the New Testament and try to find one reference to a woman serving as a pastor of a local church. Will your church survive? Can you still find a good church? This book contains 20 suggestions for serious Christians who are trying to find a good church in these troubled times.
