Filling the Congregation's Marble Jar: Building Belonging, Becoming Disciples, and Going in Love (The Marble Jar Series) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Every congregation has an invisible marble jar. We add to it whenever someone is welcomed, remembered, encouraged, forgiven, included, or invited to serve. Over time, these seemingly small acts of grace and faithfulness shape the culture of a congregation.

In Filling the Congregation’s Marble Jar, Dr Ray Francis explores congregational life through three interconnected movements: Belonging, Becoming, and Going. Through Scripture, contemporary stories, pastoral reflection, and practical application, he invites churches to consider how they can become communities where people belong, grow as disciples of Jesus Christ, and carry God’s love beyond the church doors.

More than a formula for church growth, this book asks a deeper question: What kind of people are we becoming together?

Includes an 18-session Congregational Discussion Guide for small groups, church leadership teams, Sunday school classes, clergy groups, and congregational study.
