How does the church portray the beauty of Christ?
The gospel is a theological message. But this message also creates human beauty--beautiful relationships in our churches, making the glory of Christ visible in the world today.
In this timely book, Pastor Ray Ortlund makes the case that gospel doctrine creates a gospel culture. In too many of our churches, it is the beauty of a gospel culture that is the missing piece of the puzzle. But when the gospel is allowed to exert its full power, a church becomes radiant with the glory of Christ.
Part of the 9Marks: Building Healthy Churches series.
Church leaders and members would benefit greatly from taking the time to read this book and gain the Biblical perspective of the presence of the Gospel, in all its beauty, that should accompany the proclamation of the Gospel, especially in a World culture that rejects absolutes but would possibly accept a genuine expression of God's goodness in Christ. Essential to the church today.
