SPOKANE, Wash. (BP) – Pastor Jim Shiner has a heart for orphans – the church kind.
He feels for churches that seem forgotten, abandoned, in need of intensive care. Churches withering from neglect, abuse, strife.
“I have a heart for the orphan Christian, the person who’s been hurt,” Shiner said. “My ministry has been to come into a broken situation and get it healthy again.”
For Shiner, that work comes from a deeply personal place.
“I believe in the local church because my life was changed through the local church,” the pastor continued. “The work God has done has been through the local church.”
He credits two churches for his personal understanding of what defines a healthy church. More Here
