Part 4 of our series on major issues that are holding us back from breakthrough as a global Christian community, Mark examines the crisis of lukewarmness. Being lukewarm in our faith and Christian convictions is a problem that’s more detestable to God than either being hot or cold. Sadly, many sitting in churches today are apathetic, disinterested, unenthusiastic, listless—in other words, “lukewarm.”
In part 3 of this series, Mark dives into Logistics, one aspect of mission work that is extremely overlooked. He talks through the three primary issues and more when it comes to logistical roadblocks in the global church.
