Synopsis

From a recovering "leadershipaholic": our best model is the first one.

With all our sleek ministry models, it's a wonder our churches are declining--until we read Acts 6:4, "But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and the ministry of the word."

After a long, sometimes trying ministry journey, Daniel Henderson was relieved to discover what the apostles knew from the start: The main thing must stay the main thing. It worked in their pagan times, and it will in ours.

Old Paths, New Power: Reviving Our Churches through Prayer and the Ministry of the Word calls us back to the tried-and-true: pray and proclaim the word.

Henderson, who leads a growing church revival ministry, guides you through the essentials of sparking a spiritual renaissance:

• Be a leader who walks with the Lord
• Develop a strong prayer culture in your life and ministry
• Preach with unction, dependence, and integrity
• Equip every saint for the work of the ministry
• Embrace the sufficiency of the gospel

Our churches don't need fresh models and fancy things; they need the Holy Spirit, and He rains down when we pray and proclaim the word. Read Old Paths, New Power and follow God's master plan.

From the Back Cover:

It's been said that if you're excited about what God is doing elsewhere, imitate the faith, not the miracle. Old Paths, New Power shows us how to do just that.

Lifting up the tried-and-true path to transformation, Daniel Henderson reminds us that God doesn't work through methods, but through prayer and proclamation. Church leaders will be convicted and equipped to center their lives and ministry around God's power, clearing the way for:

• Powerful movements of prayer
• Preaching that transforms lives
• Revival only the Holy Spirit can unleash
