B; 8vo; 220 pages; When Pastor Bob Girard saw his young church slipping into the same complacency that plague so many congregations, he led his church into a daring, dangerous commitment of abandonment to the Lord Jesus Christ. Renewal began for them when the reached the point of emphasizing genuine spiritual growth toward maturity rather than "success" in the normal sense of the word. The author shares principles in this book which helped his church recapture a New Testament quality and life style which allowed them to demonstrate the reality of a living Jesus to a world that needs to "see" him.
