The Deliberate Church
Mark Dever & Paul Alexander
Pastors Mark Dever and Paul Alexander provide a model of a biblical church
in this resource for pastors, elders, and others interested in the
vitality of their church. This highly practical book proposes an attitude
of complete reliance on and submission to the Gospel in building a healthy
church.

The thesis for the book is that the church
should be built around the Gospel. Every aspect of ?doing church? should have as
its primary focus, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. From the children?s Sunday school
to the announcements, to the pastoral prayer, to the songs selected to sing and
the sermon, every act should point to the One for which we gather.
This is one of those books that every pastor and elder should read and digest,
and every member concerned about the status of the evangelical church should
read. Not only is it solidly biblical, Dever and Alexander give helpful ideas,
many of which have been implimented in their own church. They also give a
quality reading list for further study after each section. This isn't a 7-step
plan or 12 step program about church. It's an attitude, a way of thinking about
what the Bible says the church should look like and then making it happen. Every
church in the world should be striving to be A Deliberate Church |
