iMonk reviews and heartily recommends Mark Dever's newest book, What is a Healthy Church?
He says:
Mark Dever is a very interesting combination of scholar- Ph.d from Cambridge-, Southern Baptist pastor in a renewed church in Washington, D.C., Founder’s movement Calvinist and practical church health consultant. Dever has effectively translated his love of the Puritans and his interest in the local church into the widely respected 9 Marks ministry, which is making a major contribution to a renewed emphasis on the local church among evangelicals. Without going down many of the Calvinist/Reformed rabbit holes, Dever gives very interesting, helpful, broadly ecumenical help for churches that stands distinctively apart from the predictable rhetoric of the church growth movement.
