What People Are Saying

Greg Hackett, Senior Pastor
First Assembly of God, Lafayette, Indiana

"The educational cohort has helped me to break a cycle of recycling. Personal development, along with assessments of the church’s ministries from internal sources as well external sources, has released the creativity in me and in the leadership. It also has provided a map for us to guide the changes in a strategic way. Has it been difficult? Yes. Has it been worth it? YES."

Donald & Diane Gifford, Superintendent
Indiana District of the Assemblies of God

“Church Life is a thoroughly Pentecostal model of building healthy churches. The journey is a process that WORKS!”

Brad Leach, Senior Pastor
Church of the King, Detroit, Michigan

"As a twenty-eight year old church planter, I wanted to work on my Masters Degree in a program that would help me develop the philosophy and tools for a lifetime of local church ministry. Through the Church Life Cohort, I’ve found what I was looking for. I can’t imagine an educational experience being more practical."

Wayne Murray, Senior Pastor
Grace Assembly of God, Indianapolis, Indiana

"The Church Life Educational Cohort is exactly what I needed for my ministry. If my church was to go higher, I had to reach higher in my leadership and relationship skills. In many ways, I was the one keeping the church from fulfilling its full potential. I had a thousand excuses why I couldn’t participate, such as I don’t have time, and I am too busy. Thank God I didn’t listen to the excuses."

Kim Robinette, Director of Church Planting and Development
Tennessee District of the Assemblies of God

"Church Life Resources emphasizes a deeply Pentecostal perspective and offers practical principles of Church Life that are systematic, comprehensive, and thorough. In one year of partnership with the Church Life process, the plateau/decline percentage of churches in Tennessee has dropped from 84% to 61%."

Ron Woods, Senior Pastor
Raleigh Assembly of God, Memphis, Tennessee

"Church Life Resources helped us identify our strengths and weaknesses, clarify our mandate, and
refire our leadership and congregation to be a relevant, powerful force!."

Terry Yancey, Superintendent
Kansas District Council of the Assemblies of God

"I am convinced the Holy Spirit prompted Dr. Wayne and Sherry Lee to launch Church Life Resources, a ministry dedicated to revitalization of the local Pentecostal church. This principle-oriented process awakens hope and confidence in pastoral leaders. The process is working in Kansas."
