Applying God's Word to every aspect of life.

This is Theology Applied.

All right, welcome back to another episode of Theology Applied.

I'm Pastor Joel with Right Response Ministries.

Today, our guest is Pastor Dustin Rudolph.

He is the pastor of Delcero Baptist Church in San Diego, California.

And our topic for this conversation is church revitalization, strengthening what remains.

I want to just go ahead and dive right in real quick by reading a text that comes to mind for

this particular topic. This is Revelation chapter 3. It says, and to the angel of the church

in Sardis, write, the words of him, who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. I know your works. You have the reputation of being

alive, but you are dead. Wake up and strengthen what remains and is about to die. For I have not found

your works complete in the sight of my God. Remember then what you have received and heard,

keep it and repent. If you will not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know

at what hour I will come against you. So we're talking about strengthening what remains

churches that need to be revitalized. That's something that Dustin is currently doing.

So without further ado, our guest, Dustin Rudolph,

could you tell our listeners a little bit about yourself?

Sure. Hey, Jill.

Thanks for exploring this topic.

This is important.

My name's Dustin.

I've been a pastor at Del Sarah Baptist Baptist Church for two years, June 2018.
