The Church Today

Teaching points

The church in the West is declining — but decline is not destiny. Revival has happened before and can happen again.
Revitalization is not about bigger buildings or better programs — it is about returning to the biblical pattern.
Acts 2:42-47 is not just for the early church — it is for every church, in every generation, in every culture.
Jesus Generation Movement exists to revitalize the church — to help believers return to the simplicity, power, and mission of the early church.
The best way to predict the future of the church is to create it. That is what church planters do.

What does church revitalization look like in your context?
What is dying in the church that needs to die? What is thriving that needs to be protected?
How does Jesus Generation Movement's vision align with what you see God doing?
What is your role in revitalizing the church?

Write one paragraph: 'The church I want to see in 10 years.'
Identify one thing you can do this month to contribute to church revitalization.
Share your vision with someone and ask for their honest response.
