Helpful Resource for Church Leaders

This is a very practical book that helps diagnose the spiritual malaise that inhabits many congregations and offers prescriptions for the healing and health of those congregations. Bill Kemp includes evaluative tests and spiritual exercises for churches to rekindle their spiritual passion. Wonderfully practical and helpful!

The Babylonian army slaughtered the Judean army on the plains of Jericho, leaving the once-powerful Judah as nothing more than bones on the battlefield in the valley.

But God had a plan.

God told Ezekiel to prophesy to the bones, promising Judah that I will put My Spirit in you, and you shall live. So Ezekiel cried out, Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. What was once the remains left by scavengers revived and stood ready to serve, demonstrating that with the power of God, even dry bones can live.

There is hope after all! Like the bones of Ezekiel, congregations and their leadership can be rejuvenated into action, and the passion for ministry rekindled.

If even the minister is bored with worship, yours may be a church with low spiritual passion, writes Kemp. Getting out of this rut requires more than a gifted pastor or the church's participation in some new program. It requires refocusing the whole congregation's attention upon the problem.

EZEKIEL'S BONES examines both the difficulties and possibilities of breathing new life into your church's dry spirit. Written for anyone serving a church leadership role, this book addresses assessing your congregation, identifying problems and making needed changes.

With Kemp as your guide, you'll discover an innovative path to recovery and sustained vitality.
