I recently read an article called “Seven Indicators of Church Health.” Here are the indicators the author points to:
VIBRANT SPIRITUALITY
ENTHUSIASTIC VOLUNTEER SERVICE
TRUSTED LEADERSHIP
EXPRESSION OF COMPASSION
GENEROSITY IN FINANCES
GENUINE COMMUNITY
SALVATION ANTICIPATED
I can’t help but wonder why the strange absence of the Bible or Sound Doctrine from this list? If you were making a list of indicators, what would appear on your list?
