How Does Understanding Conversion Shape Ministry?

The way a church operates says a lot about how they believe people are saved. When a church truly embraces the Bible's teaching on conversion, they will call people to repentance and faith—not just one-time decisions, therapeutic healings, or moral lifestyles. 

This short book was written to help churches rightly understand the difference that a biblical doctrine of conversion should make for teaching, evangelism, discipling, membership, and every other facet of the life of a local church. 

Part of the 9Marks: Building Healthy Churches series.

  • Shows the relationship between our doctrine of conversion and practice of ministry in the local church
  • Part of the 9Marks: Building Healthy Churches series, which expands on Mark Dever’s best-selling book Nine Marks of a Healthy Church
  • Useful for small groups or individual study
