We need to challenge our preconceptions about size and health when it comes to church and ministry. Is the goal we need to meet statistical or is it scriptural? Are we better because we are bigger or because we are faithful? We, The Church, needs to return to our first love - serving Jesus in mission and ministry. Because we have listened - without any foundation of knowledge - to the pseudo-intellectuals babble about areas of study where they hold only baseless opinions - the church has been led to the edge of the abyss. The result of their ignorance and the foolishness of church membership has led to the closing of scores of churches and missionary enterprises. We now find ourselves in a spiritual and cultural war without the leadership or the spiritual weaponry to turn the tide of the conflict. The local church and the church around the world must rebuild on the solid rock.
