Homer, I don't have the ultimate answer but I have seen what you're looking for, to a degree, at a church I attended a few years ago. They had about 1000 attending and now have 1300 and also started a church plant. The unique thing about them is that I've never seen a church that has so many differe...

What I didn't see was this. When did the Israelites ever remain faithful to God and yet experience being "scattered amo...
