Description



About the Book



Understanding The Congregation's Authority will help readers understand what church membership is, why it's important, and how congregationalism is the best expression of God's rule over His churches.



Book Synopsis



Congregational authority is less about the meetings and more about the mission. Congregationalism has a bad rap for well-known reasons: inefficient meetings, upstart members, browbeaten ministers. But biblical congregationalism isn't so much about the meetings. It's about empowering the whole church to promote and protect the gospel. Pastors lead and equip. Members get to work strengthening one another and pursuing Christ's mission in the world.
