Biblically and practically instructs church members in ways they can labor for the health of their church.

What Is a Healthy Church Member? takes its cue from Mark Dever's book What Is a Healthy Church?, which offered one definition of what a healthy church looks like biblically and historically. In this new work, pastor Thabiti Anyabwile attempts to answer the natural next question: "What does a healthy church member look like in the light of Scripture?"

God intends for us to play an active and vital part in the body of Christ, the local church. He wants us to experience the local church as a home more profoundly wonderful and meaningful than any other place on earth. He intends for his churches to be healthy places and for the members of those churches to be healthy as well. This book explains how membership in the local church can produce spiritual growth in its members and how each member can contribute to the growth and health of the whole.

"Given the state of so many of our churches today, this book arrives not a moment too soon."
—R. Albert Mohler Jr., President and Joseph Emerson Brown Professor of Christian Theology, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

"This book provides an excellent and much-needed focus on the individual church member."
—R. C. Sproul, President, Ligonier Ministries; copastor, St. Andrew's Chapel, Sanford, Florida

An accurate assessment

Good discussion starter

ByRyan Donovanon September 29, 2016

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I love short books with a lot of great content. The Leadership Team (pastors and elders) at our church are reading through this book and talking together about it, which has been helpful. It has sparked great discussion and helped us to think clearly about what we want our members to look like as a result of the ministry of our church.

Helpful Concepts

ByBrandonon September 1, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Helpful concepts for how to grow individually as part of a local church, as well as some practical application. Not the most riveting of reads. I suspect I would have liked it a little more had I read Dever's "Nine Marks of A Healthy Church."

A great "membership handbook"

ByM. Battenfieldon September 6, 2013

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This book is easy to read, and while it does not dive into the depths and full details of what it means to be a "Church Member", it does a very good job of outlining what a "healthy" (active, functioning, Great-Commission-fulfilling) Christian church member should be.

It is not some kind of divine "checklist" - it is simply a practical guide. It would make a good "text" for a "new members" class, or as a church-wide unifying and energizing study.

I hope to pick up several of these for "gifts"!

Another good read.

ByBillon October 20, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

If you have issues about church member foundations this is a good book to investigate & then assimilate new members into a steady walk & it will allow them to be actively engage. The author has done his homework & if by chance you get to read it make sure you take notes to go with you for memorization because you can & will grow from reading it.

Needed in every church!

ByMarilyn J. Bilbyon July 26, 2014

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Every person joining a church fellowship should be required to read this book. Too often church membership is taken lightly as if it doesn't really matter what one does. But it does matter and needs to be taken seriously as any other joining. Membership rolls need to match the people in the pews as the books says. Definitely required reading.

Christians need check-ups too...

ByDoniseon October 1, 2013

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Required reading for Church Ministry class was quite an eye-opener for me and others like me who can sometimes be a "Lone Ranger Christian" It's a gentle reminder that the 'church' is the whole of Christ's body and so requires the partnership, support, and love of other Christians. Easy and enjoyable read.
