<p>What is the most effective way to grow a church? It's not a new methodology or cultural outreach strategy, it's...the Word of God.  In this book, Jonathan Leeman wants you to realize that the Word, working through God's Spirit, is responsible for the growth of God's church and we need to trust it! Leeman not only informs and equips the leadership of local churches for greatest effectiveness in their preaching ministry but explains how to translate that into the life of the church throughout the week. The book also deals with two errors - not trusting the Word (resulting in a pragmatic ministry philosophy) and not living in light of the Word, (resulting in a ministry philosophy of "preaching is enough").  </p>
<p><i>Reverberation</i> explains the pulpit ministry and traces the theme of how the Word continues through the life of the church. Both theological and practical, <i>Reverberation </i>focuses on how the church hears, responds, discusses, implements and is transformed by the Word.  No high-octane production, superstar personalities, or postmodern entreaties, just stuff that is really old, really good, and really powerful!  </p>

<p><div>Everyone is looking for power. Political campaigns play to the power of fear and hope; advertising agencies rely on the power of appetite, both wielding power by the means of words.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>But churches have something different and better. Churches have the gospel. Though we live in the world, we must not wage war like the world, or fight with its weapons. On the contrary, we have divine power to demolish strongholds.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>The gospel consists merely of words, but those words have the unexpected and underestimated power to create new life, to justify, to prepare a bride, to give the foretaste of glory. Christian conversion depends upon the underestimated power of the gospel.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Authors Jonathan Leeman, R. Albert Mohler Jr., Thabiti Anyabwile, David Platt, Kevin DeYoung, Mark Dever, C.J. Mahaney, Matt Chandler, John Piper, and J. Ligon Duncan III call readers to herald a common refrain: Do not underestimate the gospel, and do not underestimate the God of this gospel.</div></p>

<p>LA DISCIPLINA EN LA IGLESIA ES IMPRESCINDIBLE PARA EDIFICAR UNA IGLESIA SANA. Pero, ¿cómo exactamente se ejerce la disciplina en la iglesia? Jonathan Leeman nos ayuda a afrontar la interminable variedad de circunstancias y pecados para los que no tenemos ningún precedente en las Escrituras, pecados que no aparecen en ninguna lista y que necesitan un marco bíblico para ser corregidos de forma apropiada y con amor. Este libro es una guía contemporánea y concisa que nos provee del marco teológico necesario para entender las medidas disciplinarias e implementarlas en la iglesia local, al mismo tiempo que nos ofrece diferentes ejemplos de situaciones reales y las medidas que se tomaron. “Una guía importante y perspicaz que consolida iglesias sanas ejerciendo básicamente el amor, la disciplina y nuestras responsabilidades como cristianos. El pastor que anhele tener una iglesia sana recibirá un provecho inmenso de su lectura”. PAIGE PATTERSON, Presidente de Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary “Exegéticamente preciso, especialmente práctico y lleno de estudios de casos reales de cómo las iglesias deberían de tratar con la gran variedad de situaciones comunes. ¡Altamente recomendado!”. CRAIG BLOMBERG, Catedrático ilustre del Nuevo Testamento en Denver Seminary “Este libro es excepcional y teológicamente único en su género. Nuestros ancianos piensan utilizarlo como guía. Creo que esta será la obra definitiva acerca de la disciplina en la iglesia”. J. D. GREEAR, Pastor principal de The Summit Church, Durham, Carolina del Norte</p>

<p>¿POR QUÉ DEBERÍAS UNIRTE A UNA IGLESIA? Llegar a ser miembro de una iglesia local es una parte importante -y a menudo descuidada- de la vida cristiana. La tendencia actual es rehusar la práctica de la religión organizada y manifestar rechazo o miedo al compromiso, sobre todo con cualquier institución. Jonathan Leeman aborda estos temas con una explicación sencilla de lo que significa la membresía de la iglesia y por qué es importante. Restituye a la iglesia local al lugar que le corresponde a través de una argumentación convincente que nos llevará a comprometernos con ella. “Lleno de conceptos prácticos y de argumentación coherente. Este libro nos ayudará a curar a los cristianos de nuestra cultura actual de su alergia a la membresía de la iglesia, a la autoridad pastoral, a tener que dar cuentas y a no poner límites a la libertad personal”. TIM KELLER, Pastor principal de Redeemer Presbyterian Church, Nueva York “Directo, fresco, edificante y, por encima de todo, bíblico. Esta es la explicación y la defensa de la membresía de la iglesia que hemos estado esperando”. MARK DEVER, Pastor principal de Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, D.C. “Jonathan Leeman nos recuerda que la membresía de la iglesia no es una opción, sino una obligación. Este libro es contundente y provocador, pero al mismo tiempo está recubierto con el evangelio de la gracia”. THOMAS SCHREINER, Profesor de interpretación del Nuevo Testamento en Southern Baptist Theological Seminary</p>

Church Membership - Spanish (Spanish Edition)

<p>Churches are currently facing a host of difficult issues―potential shut-downs and restrictions due to COVID-19, political dissension among members, racial division, church abuse scandals, and the list continues. While some attendees have temporarily turned to virtual church services, others are wondering if committing to a local church is worth the trouble. Is it really that important to gather each week?\nWritten for anyone struggling to answer this question, Collin Hansen and Jonathan Leeman help readers rediscover why the church is essential. Rediscover Church starts from the ground up, examining topics such as the mission of the church, the importance of preaching and teaching, church membership, church discipline, and how to love members who are different. This book is a timely reminder that the church is more than just a livestream―it is an essential fellowship of God's people furthering God's mission.</p>
