Summary:
In this episode of Rural Church Renewal, TJ, Joe, and Josh discuss the significance of deeply held convictions in driving church growth and health, rather than just following plans or models from large churches. They emphasize the importance of being motivated by biblical convictions and genuine love for Jesus and the congregation. Their conversation includes the pitfalls of envy and pragmatic approaches, advocating instead for aligning church activities with core convictions like spiritual fruit, stewardship, and spiritual giftedness. They conclude with the notion that real growth is a consequence of focusing on these biblical principles.
