Twelve Challenges Churches Face (9Marks)

Twelve Challenges Churches Face

Author: Mark Dever

Division. Disobedience. Legalism. These are just a few of the many problems that plague churches today, just as they plagued the Corinthian church in the first century. That’s why, out of his great love and concern for this young church, Paul addressed these issues boldly, offering the Christians at Corinth much-needed admonition, instruction, and encouragement.

If you have ever witnessed a church split or a denominational dispute, you know firsthand that the same sort of struggles impact our churches today. In Twelve Challenges Churches Face, pastor Mark Dever—a leading authority on the subject of church health—tackles this and eleven other major challenges we must fight to overcome.

“Few books of the Bible are as relevant to the modern church as 1 Corinthians, and few pastors are building their churches as faithfully as Mark Dever. In Twelve Challenges Churches Face, Mark takes Paul’s counsel to the Corinthians and applies it to churches today with compelling clarity and wisdom. Pastors, churches, and individuals will all be—just like the Corinthians—instructed, corrected, encouraged, and pointed to the Savior.” —C.J. Mahaney, Sovereign Grace Ministries
