[Podcast] How To Save A Dying Church With Ron Edmondson
By: Vanderbloemen
Church planting and church revitalization are helping push the front lines of the Kingdom farther every day. While similar in many ways to church planting, church revitalization also has some distinct differences that make it difficult for the planter to undertake.
In this episode of the Vanderbloemen Leadership Podcast, William Vanderbloemen sits down with a man that's undertaken church planting as well as church revitalization: Ron Edmondson, Senior Pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church and thought leader in the realms of church leadership, church planting, and church revitalization.
Ron talks with William about:- Rebuilding your church team
- Breathing life into a church in decline
- Managing change
