THE HARD TRUTH ABOUT “CHURCHIANITY”

 

Churchianity is characterized by the belief that Sunday services, listening to sermons, and endless church programs and packaging, is our purpose as Christians…

 

Being part of a healthy local church expression is crucial of course. However, with any over emphasis of the pulpit driven model, celebrity pastor, or “mega church goal”, there is often very little real discipleship or personal transformation in individuals …and often little impact on society beyond the walls. 

 

Many people today are comfortable going to church for a couple hours a week, but would be uncomfortable 2000 years ago following Jesus. Jesus will challenge you, disciple you, equip you and ask you to get out of a boat and walk on water. 

 

Churchianity is part of our western societal culture and a contributor to community, but it doesn’t in and of itself, have what it takes to transform people who transform the world. The mandate of Jesus still requires mature disciples to fulfill the Great Commission. 

Derek is a trusted apostolic/prophetic leader, requested speaker, pastor, author and “transformation specialist.” He is the President and Founder of the History Makers Society, through which he has helped thousands to discover their God-given purpose - many becoming catalysts of transformation in their communities and nations. 

 

As an advisor to leaders of various capacities, Derek is impacting people, and society on several continents. Even through his brief teachings and seminars on a diverse range of topics, you are guaranteed to walk away with the keys necessary for effective leadership.

 

“I am impressed by Derek Schneider’s combination of breadth, wisdom, and steps for practical implementation to make it happen in our generation.”

C. Peter Wagner, 

Vice President, Global Spheres Inc.
