What makes for a healthy church? A large congregation? Plentiful parking? Vibrant music?

You may have read books on this topic before-but not like this one. This new expanded edition of Nine Marks of a Healthy Church is not an instruction manual for church growth. It is a pastor's recommendation of how to assess the health of your church using nine crucial qualities that are neglected by many of today's churches.

Whether you're a church leader or an involved member of your congregation, you can help cultivate these elements in your church, bringing it new life and health for God's glory.

<健康教會九標誌>-承襲鍾馬田和約翰.斯托得的傳統，狄馬可號召教會重新發現聖經的傳統。在歷史上，教會也許從未如此努力要與文化接軌，卻在這麼做的時候變得那麼不相關！儘管許多現代教會的權威都鼓勵我們要在世界，但是狄馬可提醒我們；我們的呼召是要在這麼做的時候不屬世界。 這本書的內容主要論及教會－是誰，而非教會做什麼。畢竟，<是誰>先於<做什麼>，因為總是－我們是誰決定了我們最終所做的。讓教會就是教會！閱讀此書，即會收穫！
