During this time as we look toward the post-pandemic era, an interesting development has occurred in the life of our friend, Mark Clifton. He is currently being considered as pastor of a 3-member church. Listen in as he shares his unique strategy as he steps into this new opportunity.

  • Mark’s story
  • Understanding the hope every church has
  • Why the church facility is important
  • The abundance of adoption/replanting opportunities today

Resources mentioned in today’s podcast:

      • North American Mission Board

    • Revitalize & Replant is sponsored by the North American Mission Board and ChurchReplanters.com. More than 10% of churches in North America are at risk of closing and the North American Mission Board is committed to reversing this trend by decreasing the death rate of existing churches while simultaneously increasing the birth rate of new churches. To learn more about what it means to become a replanting pastor or to explore resources for replanting and revitalization in your own church, visit ChurchReplanters.com.

    Hello Folks,
    Great going Mark to hear about the new wave in front of you. God is bring new contact. Last year God had us on mission trying to replant and rebirth house churches because so many folks that once were in church no longer attend any church. We are still in the process of birthing these with members from various denomination. We want to expand the kingdom.

    Jimmie and Hattie Booker,

      I’m glad to hear some are trying to get the house church more popular. So many Christians have given up on payed professionals running His church like a business. Perhaps you can find a way to get the house church more popular using the internet.

    Mark:
    I am happy to hear about what God is doing in your life and the life of that three (3) member church. I am very interested in talking you about our church. We are in trouble. We will probably close. Denomination is Christian Methodist Episcopal Church.

    God’s grace be with you always.R

    Mark;

    I’m delighted to hear what God is doing.

    I believe that it is not the numbers that matter but the impact being made.

    I know a lot of churches are in trouble, I hope this will help.
