The guys welcome Dr. Trevin Wax, Vice President of Research and Resource Development at NAMB to the Bootcamp. Trevin’s new podcast, Reconstructing Faith, is one of our favorites, we’re talking about some of the subject matter from this season’s final Episode 12 on how the church can impact culture today.

We asked Trevin a couple of questions about things the churches can avoid and what gives him hope about the church today.

What Churches Can Avoid 

  •  Abandoning orthodoxy to stop decline
  • The assumption that it is impossible to grow as a church in today’s culture

What Important Commitments are Necessary for the Church?

  • Hold to doctrine – keep standing where you are standing
  • Be known for the way your church serves the community (especially the marginalized)

How To Mobilize the Church Today

  • Champion the idea that there is no expiration on spiritual gifts – there are opportunities for seasoned saints to engage people with the gospel regardless of age.
  • Rephrase the question: What can’t these Sr. Adults do? See them as an asset not a liability
  • Help the church turn outward by working with those who are most receptive to living missionally, let God change the hearts with your work of faithfulness (start with who you have)
  • View the church (even if small) as a strategic outpost for gospel ministry
