What is a Healthy Church? | Mark Dever

by Matt McCarnan on September 14th, 2007

What is a Healthy Church?Mark Dever. What is a Healthy Church? Crossway, 2007. 128 pp.

I spoke to Mark Dever just about a year ago and asked him if there were any books in his future. At that time he mentioned that he’d soon have a book out dealing with personal evangelism but that he had nothing planned after that. It seems that his plans changed! The book on evangelism is due for release in just a few days (September 11). It has been preceded by What is a Healthy Church and will be followed by The Church and Her Challenges. What is a Healthy Church? is a shortened, introductory version of Dever’s previous book 9 Marks of a Healthy Church written primarily for people in the pews rather than the men in the pulpits. After all, church health is not the sole responsibility of a local church’s leadership.

Demarest has produced a magnificent soteriological work. It is extremely well organized and meticulously thorough. It is written on a technical level, and it would function quite well as a textbook or supplemental reading for seminary studies in soteriology.
