The Compelling Community

Where God's Power Makes a Church Attractive

What does a community that testifies to God's power look like?

God’s people are called to a togetherness and commitment that transcends all natural boundaries ― whether ethnic, generational, or economic. But such a community can be enjoyed only when it relies on the power of God in the gospel.

In The Compelling Community, pastors Mark Dever and Jamie Dunlop cast a captivating vision for authentic fellowship in the local church that goes beyond small groups. Full of biblical principles and practical advice, this book will help pastors lead their congregations toward the kind of community that glorifies God, edifies his people, and attracts the lost.

Opened my eyes to how I need to approach my church community. I listened as I followed along in the book in which couldn't stop underling. Such a great book!
