Over the years numerous churches have held revival meetings to try to energize their people and increase their attendance. They bring in a recommended Evangelist to preach a series of evangelistic messages and special guests or musicians to draw a large crowd. Many times they get a dramatic increase during the meeting, but as soon as the meeting is over, things quickly return to the original state. By correctly diagnosing what is needed in a particular church, and taking appropriate action to correct the problems, it should be possible to produce more permanent results, greatly strengthening the church. Specific examples from scripture are used to help in making an accurate diagnosis as to what is needed. This is followed with specific recommendations from scripture as to how the problems should be addressed, and what can be expected if those recommendations are followed.
