Pastor and Author Thabiti M. Anyabwile Empowers Readers to Actively Contribute to the Vitality of the Local Church

God wants Christians to experience the local church as a home more profoundly wonderful and meaningful than any other place on earth. To achieve this, all believers should play an active, intentional role in the body of Christ. But what does it mean to be a healthy church member?

In this 9Marks guide, pastor Thabiti Anyabwile studies God's word to show readers how they can labor for the health of their church. Covering 10 essential topics—including evangelism, discipleship, self-discipline, and prayer—he demonstrates how contributing to the mission of the local church also helps readers experience profound spiritual growth in their own lives.
