THE CHURCH HAS MADE ITS MARK ON HISTORY.

CAN IT STILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE TODAY?

The winds of change are blowing. In this time of massive political and social upheaval, many people are questioning the relevance of established institutions like the church. A t the same time, others are looking to the church in hopes that it holds the life-changing answers they desperately need.

In Vibrant Church Thom Rainer and Daniel Akin objectively examine the church's relevance in the tumultuous 21st century. Combining rigorous biblical scrutiny and practical attention to today's needs, they explore core questions about the church's identity and mission:
Just what is the church anyway?
Is my church acting like the church?
How does a vibrant church make decisions?
Does my church have to practice church discipline?
How does a vibrant church carry out its main purposes?
What should a vibrant church look like in the 21st century?
Jesus declared, "I will build My church, and the forces of Hades will not overpower it" (Matt. 16:18). Two thousand years later, the church still stands on the firm foundation of Jesus Christ. Discover how your church can be what Jesus intended it to be.
