When this model is followed, the believer will see that they have a responsibility, and the old "80/20 rule" will soon be reversed.. 7; Luke 10:2).

He lays out a model whereby a Christian can easily determine their current spiritual maturity and take measurable steps In a world where most church attendees are content to be spectators, Arthur Keeley not only challenges us to become participants in the local body of believers, he also shows us how to do it! He lays out a model whereby a Christian can easily determine their current spiritual maturity and take measurable steps to grow in their faith. Along the way, the reader finds motivation to make a significant contribution to the ministry of the church, thus finding and fulfilling their God intended role as a participant rather than an observer.
