About this listen
The answer isn't found in better programs, modern strategies, or cultural relevance. It's found in returning to God's original blueprint for His church—a design so comprehensive and powerful that Jesus promised "the gates of hell will not prevail against it."
Discover God's Complete Vision
In God's Blueprint for His Church, you'll explore seven divinely inspired metaphors that reveal exactly what God intended when He designed the church:
- Family - Creating authentic love and belonging that heals dysfunction
- Army - Advancing God's kingdom through unified spiritual warfare
- Flock - Providing shepherding care that guides and protects
- Citizens - Representing heaven's values in an earthly culture
- Body - Functioning organically under Christ's coordinated leadership
- Bride - Developing beauty and purity that captures Christ's heart
- House - Becoming a dwelling place where God's presence is manifest
Each metaphor addresses specific challenges that plague modern churches. When churches learn to embrace all seven aspects of their identity simultaneously, they become the unstoppable force for transformation that Jesus envisioned.
Written in accessible language that avoids theological jargon, this book provides both biblical foundation and practical application. You'll discover:
- Why most churches fail to reach their potential (and how to change that)
- How each metaphor solves different types of church problems
- Practical steps for implementing God's complete design
- Why integration of all seven metaphors is essential for church health
- How to create environments where God's presence dwells powerfully
Whether you're a pastor, church planter, ministry leader, or committed church member, this book will transform how you see the church and your role in God's kingdom. You'll gain:
✓ Biblical clarity about God's intentions for His people
✓ Practical wisdom for building healthy church communities
✓ Hope for churches that seem stuck or struggling
✓ Vision for what becomes possible when churches embrace their complete identity
The Church Jesus Builds
The world desperately needs churches that function according to God's design rather than human tradition. When congregations embrace their identity as loving families, effective armies, well-shepherded flocks, otherworldly citizens, healthy bodies, beautiful brides, and sacred dwelling places, they become irresistible demonstrations of God's kingdom.
Stop settling for less than God's best. Discover the blueprint that can transform your church into everything Jesus intended it to be.
Perfect for pastors, church planters, ministry teams, and anyone who wants to see the church fulfill its God-given potential
