Understanding the Congregation's Authority

More about the book

Congregational authority is less about the meetings and more about the mission.  Congregationalism has a bad rap for well-known inefficient meetings, upstart members, browbeaten ministers. But biblical congregationalism isn’t so much about the meetings. It’s about empowering the whole church to promote and protect the gospel. Pastors lead and equip. Members get to work strengthening one another and pursuing Christ’s mission in the world.
