There is a great power in focusing on one thing when working to revitalize a church. Today, we cover six reasons why.

Episode Highlights:

Church revitalization doesn’t have to be as complicated as some make it. Just start with one thing.
Trying to do too much too quickly can kill a revitalization effort.
Ministry complexity will drain the leadership of a church.

The six reasons we discuss are:

You have to begin somewhere
Complexity leads to confusion and complacency
Helps the heart and attitude of the leader
The power of low-hanging fruit
Makes you focus on what really matters
Helps you to say no
