Do This or Die, Church — part 3

Around 200 churches will close this week, maybe more. The pace will accelerate unless our congregations make some dramatic changes.

3. We must abandon the entitlement mentality.

Your church is not a country club where you pay dues to get your perks and privileges. It is a gospel outpost where you are to put yourself last.

Don’t seek to get your way with the music, temperature and length of sermons.

Here is a simple guideline: Be willing to die for the sake of the gospel. That’s the opposite of the entitlement mentality.
