Like many urban churches in the 1950s, SCEMC believed: "If we built
it, they will come." In 30 years, it grew to over 200 members with
multiple staff, vibrant services and a church bus. Then it lost
momentum. In 2002, there were not enough skilled people to run the
church's board. Attendance dropped below 35 and annual budget fell
below $45K. SCEMC was struggling to survive. This paper introduces
a strategy advocating authentic practices of God-centered worship,
Lord- honoring stewardship, loving fellowship and
evangelism-oriented discipleship. It will trace and present an
analysis of the rise and decline of SCEMC and will establish the
biblical support for the centrality of worship, stewardship,
fellowship and discipleship ("four ships") in both personal
spirituality and ministry. This paper argues that the promotion of
the authentic "four ships" is sufficient and can spawn a culture
that will impart personal spiritual vitality, induce clear ministry
direction, relevant strategy and effective programming. The working
plans presented is but one example how similar ministries can be
turned around.
