Whether the church is one where folks are backflippin or one where the worship is litergical, a happening church would be one where souls are getting to know Jesus and making lifelong commitments to him.
A happening church is one that has many entire families living as godly examples in a wicked world.
A dead church is where people are weak in faith.
Where even the families in the church struggle with Christian living on a daily basis.
Where the assembly has simply become a place to "get recharged", and esoteric affirmation is revered as the premium experience.
