1. Embrace Dependence

1. Embrace Dependence (on God) (43 – Chapter 4)
Complements David Kuykendall’s “living by grace.”. “

“There is no business plan” (46)

A professional approach to church growth will not likely guarantee the establishment of a multi-ethnic church. (48)
How to visibly show this (48)
No offering plate (49)
Generously give up leaders (49)
