A
fresh breeze is blowing through the church at the beginning of the third
millennium. Preachers aren't telling the same old, stale, worn out
stories anymore. They're connecting with their audiences with fresh
illustrations.
Lay
ministers are joining their pastors on the front lines of the battle
and are making a difference in their world. These men and women are
not timid--they're world changers.
Are you a part of the revolution?
