"How to Build a Healthy Church is a consideration of what the principles laid out in Nine Marks of a Healthy Church (Mark Dever) have looked like, at least in some of their practical details, in the life of the local church. American evangelicalism is dripping with different kinds of churches: The Emerging Church, The Purpose Driven Church, The Connecting Church, The Disciple-Making Church, a critical assessment called The Market Driven Church, and almost any other kind of church you could possibly want.The aim of this book is to hold up a way of doing things that has been recovered from centuries past-a church driven and governed by the gospel"--
In this practical guide, pastors Mark Dever and Paul Alexander have compiled a practical handbook for pastors and church leaders on how to build a healthy church grounded in the gospel.
