The church in North American appears to be in a bit of trouble. Let's face it, it doesn't have the greatest reputation; it's been losing as many as a million members a year; and it doesn't look like much is going change any time soon. Indeed, there are those who have predicted that the demise of the church is at hand. Not so. Bill Tenny-Brittian and Kris Tenny-Brittian have been working with churches for years, helping them become faithful disciple-making congregations. Their consultations and training events bring hope to beleaguered church leaders and renewed energy to congregations as they make a commitment to transforming lives. And now Bill and Kris are taking to the airwaves … well, the cyber ones anyway … with Church Talk, a live call-in internet radio talk show. Each show features a conversation about topics that make a difference to the church: leadership, disciple-making, evangelism, what's working, what's not, and much much more. Join them for Church Talk and help change your church, your community, and your world.

All of a sudden, evangelism is a hot topic ... again. But it still carries with it baggage that's chained around its feet. Many Christians are convinced that evangelism comes with scripts, a litany of Bible verses, and arm twisting. Yet... more
