Embers to a Flame

Reviving the local church

Drawn from decades of Dr. Harry Reeder's pastoral ministry and the principles of his book From Embers to a Flame, this ministry equips pastors and church leaders to lead biblical revitalization — not gimmicks, but the patient, prayerful, Spirit-dependent recovery of gospel health in established congregations.

The Lampstand Conference

Embers to a Flame is the home of the Lampstand Conference on Church Vitality, dedicated to fostering health and growth in churches that have lost their first love. Each year pastors gather for teaching, fellowship, and the recovery of revitalization rhythms in the local church.

What we do

• Conferences & Cohorts — gathering pastors for sustained learning, encouragement, and prayer.
• Resources for Revitalization — sermons, articles, and books rooted in Dr. Reeder's church-vitality framework.
• Pastoral Coaching — connecting revitalization-minded pastors with mentors and peer cohorts.
• Partnership with the Local Church — equipping sessions and elder boards to lead long, faithful renewal.

"Revival is the renewing of God's work in the midst of His people."
