New pastors rising up willing to try new methodologies to promulgate an immutable gospel.

Organizational leaders, on state level as well as national so afraid of things like home churches, marketplace evangelism, the empowerment of the pew, that they condemn all as heresy rather than even contemplate dialogue.
