Word-centered church - Jonathan Leeman

It's a question hundreds of pastors ask every day:What
is the best way to grow?

A lot of books give a lot of answers, but
the best one comes from Scripture. Word-Centered Church brings that answer
into sharp focus. Written by Jonathan Leeman, editorial director for the reputable
ministry 9Marks, Word-Centered Church offers a thorough treatment of one
of God's greatest concerns: growing His people and growing His church.

As
simple as the concept may seem, it's one that many churches miss, and to their
own detriment. Because when churches center everything they do on God's Word-when
the pulpit ministry gives direction to every aspect of the church's life-growth
happens God's way. God's Word is what creates the church, and it's
what sustains it, too.

Theological and practical, Word-Centered Church
focuses on how the church hears, responds to, discusses, implements, and is
transformed by Scripture. It's not about high-octane production, superstar
personalities, or postmodern entreaties, but stuff that is really old, really good,
and really powerful.

Word-Centered Church is the ministry-model book
that churches need, because it advances the model God designed. For anyone who wants
to grow or help others grow, Word-Centered Church is indispensable.
