How to Develop a THRIVING Ministry

I'm want to blog a little bit about how to THRIVE IN ministry as opposed to SURVIVE THE ministry. Just in the last 5 days I have had two people I have personal TRIED to encourage in their churches FAIL. One church closed its doors, and the other has quite on the "DREAM OF JESUS" and will more than likely be closing their doors as a POTENTIAL GOSPEL WITNESS to their community. In both of these scenarios I am convinced:
  1. That it wasn't the Lord who failed His church
  2. That God did not make a mistake in leading these churches to be birthed in their communities
  3. That God's heart is broken over the fact that the church failed in their mission
So probably more for me then you I want to talk about why I believe God has blessed GRANITE UNITED and our NETWORK CHURCHES. THRIVING MINISTRIES are fueled by CLEAR VISION. It is VISION that gives churches their PURPOSE push the limits and pay the price that is required to flesh out God's dream for the community among them and the community around them.

What's GOD'S VISION for GRANITE UNITED? To reach NEW ENGLAND with the GOSPEL by GROWING our church, MULTIPLYING campuses, and birthing NETWORK churches.

So what's your vision for your church or ministry? If you are part of the GRANITE UNITED TEAM how are you aligning your ministry in LIVING OUT God's vision for our church? If you are not part of the GRANITE TEAM let me ask you, what's the vision God has placed in the heart of your church, and do they know it?
