This Little Church Stayed Home

Description

Many churches, riding the faddish waves of our times, have gone ‘to market’, but not all. Some churches are trying to ‘stay home’, that is, remain firmly grounded in the Scriptures. Still, the pressures mount, the temptations are repackaged, and the schemes of the world become more and more persuasive.

In This Little Church Stayed Home, Dr Gilley explores the manifold temptations of conservative churches to sell out to modern trends and innovations, including the present temptation towards mystical theology. Churches toying with ‘new measures’ will be challenged to remain true to the historic doctrines of the Christian faith and to remain faithful to God’s chosen means of converting sinners to himself: the good news of Jesus Christ. Pastors, seminary students, church leaders and Christians who want God’s Word to be paramount in their lives will find This Little Church Stayed Home a timely message to a Christian subculture fixated on marketing the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ.

Dr. Gary E. Gilley has been pastoring at Southern View Chapel since 1975. He is author of six books, and has also contributed to four other books.

Pastor Gilley received his BA from Moody Bible Institute and his MBS and ThD from Cambridge Graduate School. He is a frequent speaker at Bible conferences and writes the monthly study paper, Think on These Things and is the Book Review Editor for the Journal of Dispensational Theology. He is also a board member of the IFCA International, Brazil Gospel Fellowship Mission, Personal Freedom Outreach and New Tribes Missions.
