On The Power of Testimonies
Rescuing Churches with Stan Givens

Why is it so imperative that we take time to pause a corporate worship service and allow believers to share what God has done or is doing in their lives? How is the Local Church negatively affected when we fail to include personal testimonies? Why are so many pastors afraid to let people stand and speak?
You might be surprised that Stan had to learn some of these lessons the hard way in his early lead pastor years. Listen as he and Josh discuss the power and importance of the personal testimony within the corporate worship service setting.
