latest release!! the 3rd great awakening? A spiritual opportunity to reverse congregational decline
This is a seven-part study guide (Leaders Guide also available). The concepts within were developed around research compiled while writing Between Two Breaths. This is the third of three books in the Series, The Great Commission for 21st-Century Congregations. Perhaps you have been told why others think congregations are declining. Maybe, your congregational leadership should openly discuss your own data and direction before fixing something that may not be broken. Before taking any action wouldn't it be wise to first sit down and have a discussion? About what? That is the point of the study. The first two books in this series are listed below.

Behind the Healthcare Cost Curtain … there is an answer!
Written and copyrighted 2019. Think for a moment about where you get your information regarding the healthcare cost crisis. Now ask yourself what motivation you think each of those sources has to give you information. Who has the greatest influence over this process: those who are directly paying for healthcare, those who sell it, or those who need it? When you hear about the “increased cost of insurance,” is the source referring to the cost of healthcare or the cost of health care? This distinction is critical.
