We encourage you to rise for life—tell your church and communities how Amendment 4 will endanger precious lives, share these resources, and most of all, vote “no” on Amendment 4.

#ChurchRevitalization When the necessary changes begin to happen within the Church the comfort level of the membership will begin to decline. The familiar will be replaced by the effective @TomCheyney #TomCheyney #RenovateConf

#ChurchRevitalization in declining churches negative people look for a swarm of fellow locus to devour the few positive ones within the church. Renewal must work towards turning this around @TomCheyney #TomCheyney #RenovateConf

#ChurchRevitalization Looking forward to teaching today Part 1 of Revitalizing the 35 Participants Church: Redeveloping Your Entrance Points today at the Renovate One Day Training. Many declining churches wait too long before they will take any action. #TomCheyney #RenovateGroup

#ChurchRevitalization CHANGE isn’t a bad word in Church Revitalization, it is better translated, SURVIVAL. Far to many churches don’t have an understanding why that is so important until it is too late

#ChurchRevitalization what do you want to be known for in your retirement years? Do you want to have a reputation that you are a bitter believer standing in the way of a churches survival and one who was the reason for its death? Don’t be a roadblock. #TomCheyney #RenovateGroup

#ChurchRevitalization The rusting church is a quandary. The reason is that most of the things which led them to becoming rust buckets could have been easily avoided. People are pushed from the church instead of being pulled to the church. @TomCheyney #TomCheyney #RenovateConf

#ChurchRevitalization I am announcing that all of the Renovate National Church Revitalization brands are moving under the new name: The Renovate Group. Begin watching the changes to our websites in the days to come. #TomCheyney @TomCheyney

#ChurchRevitalization Leaders constantly develop their skills and leadership abilities by starting first with improving themselves. God uses skillful people in His work. There are skill sets critical to revitalize a church @TomCheyney #TomCheyney #RenovateConf

#ChurchRevitalization Passive aggressive behavior directed towards those in ministry seems to be on the rise. Most pastors have experienced someone walking out right when they got up to preach. Passive Aggressive members often keep their little group stirred up and cause division

#ChurchRevitalization pastor do you allow inactive members to manipulate your church’s future? When your active members set new direction stop allowing those living in the past to hurt your church’s future #TomCheyney #RenovateConference @TomCheyney

#ChurchRevitalization it is so amazing that the earliest sign of a church in decline is the amount of clutter they allow to accumulate around the church. Start cleaning up and clearing out. If you haven’t used it in two years you won’t in the future #TomCheyney #RenovateConf

#ChurchRevitalization Are you a reactive leader? There is a big difference between creative and reactive leaders even though they have the same letters. Reactive leadership may be an oxymoron. Are reactive leaders leaders at all? @TomCheyney #TomCheyney #RenovateConf
