You might know faithful but smaller churches that are struggling to keep going. Replanting and revitalisation could be the Lord's provision to bring new life to that gospel work.
In this episode of In:Dependence, FIEC Associate National Directors Adrian Reynolds and Graham Beynon are joined by John James - current Lead Pastor at City Church Birmingham but formerly involved in a revitalisation or replant at Crossway Church.
John shares his experience of joining Helier Chapel in Northfield, Birmingham, and leading a revitalisation - including a name change to Crossway Church - and the ingredients needed for such a replant or revitalisation.
This is the fourth in a series of podcast episodes to explore different ways to plant a church.
About In:Dependence: In:Dependence is FIEC’s official podcast, where you’ll hear conversations on topics for church leaders.
