Stirring the Fire Martyn Perry

Sometimes it seems that going to church can become stale for even the most enthusiastic of worshippers. It may feel like you are exhausting all your resources. Though this problem can appear insurmountable, it should by no means obstruct your efforts to form a cohesive church community. In a simple collection of suggestions paired with real life anecdotes from their long life in ministry, Authors Martyn and Fay Perry offer practical advice for those times we feel like we"re running on empty, or find ourselves sitting on the sidelines with our talents not used. They encourage us to allow God to stir the fire and warm our spirituality from within. As we do this we find ourselves wanting to serve God in life and worship. We can then play our part as the church explores new patterns of ministry. "Stirring the Fire" can help us embrace the opportunities God wants to put before us all.
