“I eagerly commend this series.”

In this booklet, Jonathan Leeman presents biblical answers to questions about the nature and application of church discipline, illustrating how Scripture presents it as loving and necessary for yielding life, health, holiness, and growth in the local church body.About  the AuthorJonathan Leeman (PhD, University of Wales) is the editorial director for 9Marks and cohost of the Pastors Talk podcast.
