“It’s seeing people come to church and go home alone; not knowing anymore people when they leave than they did when they came in. They leave as lonely as they came. They aren’t connected and they feel like they don’t belong.”
Ronnie Whitehead – Pastor of Fellowship Brazos Pointe Community Church – Lake Jackson, TX

If you read the article, let me know what your Popeye moment was? I have to say that I’m not sure I’ve quite reached into and found it yet, but there are several moments that are clear.
Viewing our small church, in such a growing area of the Hill Country, knowing that more and more people were coming and we hadn’t kept up for more than 25 years at least. . . Knowing that if we kept going like we were going that the Church would go from stagnation to deflation and finally death. . .
I didn’t like the thought of our little Church dying. . . Let’s see what God wants to do with me, with us. . .?
