Healthy churches have a clear sense of identity. They have aligned their actions with their purpose and they don’t readily deviate from it. The entire team is moving toward a unified destination because someone has defined where they are going and how they’ll get there.
IOUF (Instances of Unwavering Faith) is the quickest and easiest system to enable church leaders to determine their unique purpose. With the help of a simple pastoral and congregational assessment, church leaders and members will collaborate to determine a desired destination.
During this 7-part training track pastors will learn:
1. How to identify and employ your churches single greatest strength.
2. Seven healthy sequences that build synergy.
3. How to bust through eight common church barriers.
4. Taking advantage of the unique strengths in a small church.
5. How to use diagnostic questions to determine your DNA.
6. How to use the IOUF Road Map.
If you have ever struggled to articulate the identity of your church, this program is for you.

Instances of Unwavering Faith
Online Seminar For Pastors
Short Video - 12 Min
Motivated by a passion for God's church, Dr. Bruce Oliver loves to equip and empower the local church and its various ministries. His primary focus is to help improve the health of the local church. God used Rev. Oliver to pastor several small churches where people not only grew spiritually but the churches grew in numbers as well. He is capable and qualified to speak to pastors (especially pastors of small churches) as he himself has been in the same shoes as many of you. His powerful online seminar to pastors and church leaders is called Instances Of Unwavering Faith. This Church Health System will "re-ignite" your calling and help to revitalize your church.
Dr. Oliver has been blessed to offer "Consulting and Training to Pastors and their Churches" for over 20 years. Unfortunately many churches lack the intensity, focus and follow-through to properly reach it's community.
"Pastor, I strongly recommend Dr. Oliver to you and your church. Dr. Oliver is a uniquely gifted and qualified church consultant. I have known both Bruce and his wife Winnie for many years and know that you will be blessed and encouraged when using these powerful and insightful materials.
On May 2nd, 2008, Dr. Bruce Oliver successfully completed Church Consultant Training. I have personally certified and trained him. I can say without reservation that you and your church will be blessed by the services he offers. Why not call him today?"
Bishop Ron Schubert - Soar Ministries 734-320-1725
"Bruce has a strong desire to jump in and help struggling churches break free of their 'status quo' mindset and acquire a vision to attain all that God has for them. Also, he has a very supportive helpmate in Winnie. She has stood so faithfully with him as he has Pastored and served various congregations. He truly has a burden for God's people and the lost."
Rev. Wayne Delk Pastor, Cedar Grove Baptist Church
"It is my pleasure to recommend my friend, Dr. Bruce Oliver, for ministry to churches looking to train leadership and encourage growth. Dr. Oliver and Winnie have given themselves to helping churches in discovering leaders, giftings, developing Annual Ministry Plans, and calling for excellence in leadership. If you are a pastor or church leader - call him soon to get his expertise working for you."
Pastor Vic Johnson - Pastor of Care - The Community at Lake Ridge
The first step toward your new destination is an honest evaluation of your present situation. Old data is insufficient for new ventrues.
What is your destination? You should know your destination long before you arrive.
The motivation for any venture or journey is often the result of understanding the payoff.
We need to have a clear understanding of where we are going. The objective is to get there, and to get there you must...
Though most people would like to take the most direct route to their destination there will be barriers which will force us to travel a more diverse route.
Don't get caught up in a cycle of thinking, analyzing, prepping and waiting. Birth it!
Start working with what you have. God specializes in doing "a lot with a little." The widow poured the oil and God gave the increase.

What pastors ARE saying
"Dr. Bruce Oliver has made available an easy to use, time saving presentation entitled "Instances of Unwavering Faith". Pastor Bruce has the heart of a pastor and a heart for pastors. I had the privilege of previewing I.O.U.F. online course and was greatly encouraged.
Will "Instances of Unwavering Faith" revolutionize your ministry? Not immediately. It will, however, get you started in the right direction. It is geared to change the "small church mentality" to a "Powerful God" mindset that focuses on God doing much with little. The course contains seven sequences with additional material to help churches look at themselves and seek where God would take them in their ministry. In addition, Pastor Bruce is available to present materials in person, which only enhances the information.
Beat the "small church" mentality---it limits God. Focus on how great God is and what He makes available to each of us. Experience your own "Instances of Unwavering Faith".
