Summary

There is certainly no such thing as a perfect church. Nevertheless, any church can be healthier and glorify God better in all that it is and does. Pastor Mark Dever suggests nine distinctive traits that set a healthy church apart from the world. Traits such as expositional preaching, a biblical understanding of evangelism and strong church discipline. Although they are not the only defining marks of a biblically sound church, they are ones that should be cultivated in every assembly.
