Lessons From the Church Christ Commends

This catechism was written to strengthen those efforts, pressing the whole counsel of God more deeply into every corner of our churches. It's our hope that the panorama of truth introduced by these questions and answers will accomplish what sound doctrine is meant to do: to nurture our relationship with God, inform and deepen our convictions, equip us with discernment, and guide our living for God's glory - all grounded in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

When discussing spiritual gifts, our eyes almost reflexively turn inward either to fixate upon ourselves or to compare ourselves with others. 1 Corinthians 12–14 radically reorients our self-focused thinking to a Christ-centered, corporate focus.

A Call to Theological Fidelity

Sovereign Grace Churches is a confessional family of churches. At the heart of our union is the truth of God’s Word that we believe, cherish, and proclaim together. While the Bible is our only infallible rule of faith and practice, we are also committed—and accountable—to a specific statement of faith that represents a summary of the teaching of Holy Scripture on key points of doctrine essential to the beliefs, conduct, and witness of our churches.

Understanding church governance is not for pastors only, but for all Christians. Christ cares for his church by calling pastors to the joyful task of leading and governing under his rule, for the glory of God and the flourishing of the entire congregation. Who Governs the Church? explains plural elder-governance in Sovereign Grace Churches and shows from Scripture why we believe this is the model of governance Christ intends for his church. A Biblical vision of church leadership promotes healthy, unified, gospel-centered, elder-governed churches.
