The Trellis and the Vine: The Ministry Mind-Shift That Changes Everything
A book that Mark Dever calls “the best book I’ve read on the nature of church ministry.” Helps the reader think through, both biblically and practically, the dangers of being busy as a full-time pastor and how it can rob you of focus on what ought to be the priorities in your time. Digging more deeply into the New Testament’s view of Christian ministry, the authors argue that a major mind-shift is necessary for many churches and pastors if we are to fulfill the Great Commission and see disciples grow in grace.
There is vine work: the prayerful preaching and teaching of the word of God to see people converted and grow to maturity as disciples of Christ. Vine work is the Great Commission.

Church Membership: How the World Knows who Represents Jesus (Jonathan Leeman & Michael Horton)
Jonathan Leeman addresses the commonly asked question – one which is rarely answered well – of: “Why should I join a church?” Many genuine believers live in habits of nearly shunning any practice of joining, which to them smacks of ‘organized religion’. By offering a brief, straightforward explanation of what church membership is and why it’s important, Leeman gives the local church its proper due and builds a case for committing to the local body.
Church Membership is a useful tool for churches to distribute to new and potential members of their congregation. This volume is part of the 9Marks: Building Healthy Churches series. Look for upcoming, quick-read formats of the following marks of a healthy church: expositional preaching, biblical theology, the gospel, conversion, evangelism, church discipline, discipleship and growth, and church leadership.

Twelve Challenges Churches Face (Mark Dever)
Division. Disobedience. Legalism. These are just a few of the many problems that plague churches today, just as they plagued the Corinthian church in the first century. That’s why, out of his great love and concern for this young church, Paul addressed these issues boldly, offering the Christians at Corinth much-needed admonition, instruction, and encouragement.
If you have ever witnessed a church split or a denominational dispute, you know firsthand that the same sort of struggles impact our churches today. In Twelve Challenges Churches Face, pastor Mark Dever, a leading authority on the subject of church health, tackles this and eleven other major challenges we must fight to overcome.

Proclaiming a Cross-Centered Theology (Mark Dever)
Loving, teaching, and rightly dividing the Word of God is every pastor’s privilege and responsibility. If a pastor understands what the Word says about God, man, and the curse, about Christ and his substitutionary atonement, and about the call to repentance and sacrifice, he will develop and preach a sound theology. And sound theology is, in the words of J. Ligon Duncan, essential to faithful pastoral ministry.
Proclaiming a theology that is centered on Christ’s atonement is especially critical, for by this atonement, Christians have been brought from death to life, and by it a church lives or dies. The writers below and more issue a call for faithful proclamation and urge pastors and churches to cross-centered, scripturally saturated thinking.

The Gospel and Personal Evangelism (Mark Dever)
Evangelism is not only misunderstood, it is often unpracticed. Many Christians want to share the gospel with others, but because we don’t grasp the fundamentals of witnessing, we feel intimidated and incapable of sharing the truth of the gospel. Here’s a book that offers real help to form in ourselves a habit of genuine personal evangelism.
“For most of us, personal evangelism is the reverse of easy, and so it becomes a task we evade. Mark Dever writes to shake us up about this, clearing our heads as to just what evangelizing involves and motivating our hearts to go to it realistically and responsibly. This is a word in season that will surely do a great deal of good.” – J. I. Packer, Professor of Theology, Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia

We are all called to counsel and disciple one another and the practical lessons in this book will be referred to over and over again.
Chapters are authored by men and women who are biblical counselors and include such topics as Paul’s model of change, Paul’s lessons on temptation, renewing the mind, women in ministry and leaving the past behind.

What Does God Want of us Anyway? (Mark Dever)
Originally delivered as sermons by pastor Mark Dever at Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington D. C., these three studies are now available in one hardcover volume. Dever guides readers to take a step back and look at the Bible from a broader perspective. As we notice new features of an object when viewed from a distance, so too the major themes of Scripture become more apparent when we take in the Bible as a whole. Part of the IXMarks series, this book considers the central messages of the Bible as seen in the promises of God.
Dever examines the general narrative of God’s Word to answer the question, “What does God wants of us anyway?” Readers looking for a panoramic view of Scripture will be reminded of the faithful, persistent love of God and find themselves drawn into a broader, but deeper, understanding of the maker and keeper of promises.
