To God Be the Glory

the long version

The Lord God, our Commander-in-Chief, has already given His church a clearly defined mission for the present age. Yet so many churches seem to function without understanding their biblical mission. They are flying solo. They may do great feats and tricks with their aircraft, but are dangerous -- and sometimes even destructive -- to themselves and the other pilots. Modern churches are better equipped technologically, architecturally, and strategically than in any other time in history. But many, though doctrinally solid, seem to be otherwise drifting along without vision and direction. To God Be the Glory examines the biblical mission of the local church as it is revealed in the New Testament and explains how a church can thrive by regaining its sense of purpose. - Back cover.
