Book excerpt: A refreshing and liberating perspective to the church member who has actively participated in the life of their local church for 10, 15, 20 or more years, yet still feels spiritually dry. The author peels back the institutional veneer of the local church to delve into the spiritual dynamics that operate organically within and upon souls that believe in Jesus Christ. This divinely inspired work shines a much needed guiding light upon key faith concerns that impact the liveliness of a believer's walk, regardless of his/her situation of life. Addressed are such concerns as the revolving door of new converts, clarity about the nature of a genuine confession of faith, organic elements of God's transformation of the believer's soul and the necessity of being immersed into the revelation of Christ and His gift of God's life within us. Through this work the institutional veneer around the believer's religious life is put into perspective; thereby enabling a fluid fellowship with Jesus Christ and a vibrant servant.
