For this month's Book Review, we are excited to share Major Everett Barrow's (Corps Health Director) review of Mark Clifton's "Reclaiming Glory." Read his review below!
"Reclaiming Glory: Revitalizing Dying Churches" by Mark Clifton initiates a dialogue on breathing new life into struggling churches. The book delves into the concept of church re-planting, exploring its processes and the challenging steps involved, including the need for remembrance and repentance to restore glory in service of God's Kingdom. He touches on diagnosing a dying church, replanting pathways, sharing stories of transformation, and emphasizes 'the only metric that matters'. Central to his exploration is the pivotal question: 'Am I a re-planter?' For those facing similar challenges, ordering this book could prove invaluable for both individuals and church leadership.
