Three Hallmarks of a Biblical Church Member

What Christ Requires of Every True Christian in His Church

By: Tom Pennington

Narrated by: Craig Bagley

In Three Hallmarks of a Biblical Church Member, Tom Pennington identifies from Scripture three nonnegotiable hallmarks that every Christian must pursue to be a biblical church member. Tom challenges believers to assess their own involvement in Christ’s church to determine if they are truly biblical members—not only for the health of the church, but for the glory of the One who gave His life for the church, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Critic reviews

“In this meaty and satisfying book, Tom Pennington helps us love the church better through the pursuit of meaningful membership. Meaningful membership that makes a priority of actively attending Lord’s Day worship, discovering and deploying one’s spiritual gifts for the benefit of others, and sharing life together in loving community. In a day of church hopping and shopping let this timely resource help you ask not what your church can do for you but what you can do for your church.” - Philip De Courcy, Pastor, Kindred Community Church

“In this concise and penetrating look at church membership, Tom Pennington provides a compelling biblical case for committed involvement in a local church. He takes us from the vitality of corporate worship to the practical dynamics of fellowship in the body, giving us fresh eyes to see the joy and spiritual strength of active membership in a local assembly. Prepare to have your assumptions challenged, your convictions deepened, and your usefulness freshly invigorated.” - Jerry Wragg, Senior Pastor, Grace Immanuel Bible Church, President, The Expositors Seminary
