A highly readable book in Dr. Sexton’s typical, first-rate style, from which pithy observations, advice, and challenges abound. While so many pastors today strive for a contemporary twenty-first century church, bearing little or no resemblance to the church of the New Testament, the author takes his readers back to the very beginning to recapture the precious and powerful blessings of the Holy Spirit. This book is about the true church, its members, its order, its worship, and its methods; and it is spelled out with a liveliness that will capture and educate even the youngest reader.
The Teacher’s Packet includes the full-length book, the Teacher’s Guide, and a Study Guide. You can preview many of our lesson series like this one by watching video lessons given by Bible teachers from Temple Baptist Church at https://faithforthefamily.
