1 Thessalonians: 5 Marks of a Gospel Church

What does a healthy, gospel-centred church look like? In Five Marks of a Gospel Church, David W. Gordon turns to Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians to identify key characteristics that should mark every local assembly seeking to honour Christ and faithfully proclaim the gospel.

Drawing practical lessons from the example of the Thessalonian believers, the author explores five essential features of a thriving church. With clear biblical teaching and helpful application, he demonstrates how these principles remain relevant for assemblies facing the opportunities and challenges of the modern world.

Accessible and encouraging, this book is ideal for church leaders, Bible study groups, and individual believers who desire to strengthen their understanding of biblical church life. It provides both a challenge and an encouragement to cultivate assemblies that are firmly rooted in the gospel and committed to God's purposes.
