New Life Restarting Churches

New Life Restarting Churches: A church in Chicago called New Life has been adopting and restarting several historic churches in the city. This video is an inspiring reminder that the church in every generation is called to be multi-generational and committed to transferring the gospel the next generation. (HT: Steve McCoy)

Thanks for the shout out, Josh. I'm part of the pastoral team at New Life and we've been amazed at the opportunities to revitalize older churches here in Chicago. Its been fun to see the video used in other cities by churches wanting to do the same thing. We never considered that the video would be used that way. We feel like this is one of the next waves of opportunity God is bringing to plant churches and reach people. (Wish I'd read your post before the GCNC a few weeks ago--I was in your session and would have said 'hello'.)
