  • This work is a study focused on alternatives for churches that find themselves at the end of the lifecycle facing the end of their ministry. It is concerned with the reasons why churches find themselves in such predicaments. An emphasis is placed on the biblical theology of restart. Of special concern is the research on the fall of modernity and the rise of postmodernism to take it's place. The thesis begins with a biblical theology of restart that is rooted in the purposes of God. The author demonstrates God's unflinching desire to accomplish His purpose even if it means setting aside unfruitful churches and drafting new agents. The third chapter addresses the purposes of God as they relate to the local church. What happens when a church departs from the purposes of God? The next section addresses the critical issue of postmodernism and how it's advent has pulled culture further from the culture found within most churches. Chapter five outlines the process of restart within the context of the local church. A step-by-step process is outlined and discussed. The work concludes with a chapter on leadership and team development. As we move into the new millennium information will continue to accelerate and changes will occur quicker and with more frequency. The chapter discusses the need for changes within the infrastructure of the church.
