"Helping Local Churches Understand the Need for Revitalization" by Dan Serns

In this presentation, Dan Serns calls churches back to the original vision of the New Testament church as described in Acts 2. He highlights that revitalization begins with Spirit-filled believers who live out repentance, baptism, forgiveness, and mission as a daily lifestyle rather than a program. Using a simple bookmark model, he illustrates how both individual members and the church as a whole can intentionally lead others to Jesus. Emphasizing the power of community, prayer, and small groups, Serns outlines practical leadership structures—such as three-person teams focused on upreach, in-reach, and outreach—that help sustain spiritual vitality, foster discipleship, and support long-term church health. Dan Serns leads church growth and revitalization, church planting and lay member training at the North Pacific Union Conference.
