Thom S Rainer Quotes

Faith and optimism are contagious Picture Quote #1
So if we approach church membership from the perspective of entitlement, we have it upside down. You always ask first what you can do for your church Picture Quote #1
Healthy church membership means you find your joy in being last, instead of seeking your way and being first Picture Quote #1
The concept of an inactive church member is an oxymoron. Biblically, no such church member really exists Picture Quote #1
If outside forces and culture were the reasons behind declining and non-influential churches, we would likely have no churches today. The greatest periods of growth, particularly the first-century growth, took place in adversarial cultures. We are not hindered by external forces; we are hindered by our own lack of commitment and selflessness Picture Quote #1
We will never find joy in church membership when we are constantly seeking things our way. But paradoxically, we will find the greatest joy when we choose to be last. That’s what Jesus meant when He said the last will be first. True joy means giving up our rights and preferences and serving everyone else Picture Quote #1
