Starting the New Year Off Right

Mark Clifton, Mark Hallock, and Dan Hurst discuss how to prepare for new folks who may come to your church in the new year.

Why do folks not come to church?

• We minimize the importance of the local church.


• We worship the idol of activities.


• We take a lot of vacations from church.


• We do not have high expectations of our members.


• We make infrequent attendees leaders in our churches.
