Essential Christianity: Foundations for a Faithful Faith Keith Sherlin

What is this book about? If you want one book that can comprehensively cover all the essential truths for a healthy Christian life then this is the book. I have written this book with a goal to provide one book that can serve the Christian in every essential area of his or her life. Have you ever wondered how to find God's will for your life?

Have you ever asked yourself what is right and wrong with your own church and the leadership? If so, this book without apology reveals what a pure and honorable church looks like in structure and leadership qualities. It answers the tough questions about who runs the church (single elder rule, plurality elder rule, deacon rule, or congregational rule) and what defines a truly qualified pastor.

If so then this book gives biblical answers to these
