What Is a Church?

This can be a difficult question to answer and Christians have offered a variety of perspectives.

Gregg Allison explores and synthesizes all that Scripture affirms about the new covenant people of God, capturing a full picture of the biblical church.

He covers the topics of:

• the church’s identity and characteristics
• its growth through purity, unity, and discipline
• its offices and leadership structures
• its ordinances of baptism and the Lord’s Supper
• its ministries

Here is a rich approach to ecclesiology consisting of sustained doctrinal reflection and wise, practical application.
