It seems that increasing numbers of professing Christians in the West do not attend church. Church, to many, has become a place to go when it is convenient, to have one’s needs met. Examining what the Bible has to say about the church, Johnson shows why the local body of believers is an essential part of the life of every believer – and the role that each individual believer plays in the life of the church. This thought–provoking, challenging book will benefit every believer.

In short, accessible chapters, Johnson carefully restores church to its rightful and central place.
Iver Martin
Principal, Edinburgh Theological Seminary, Edinburgh, Scotland
In this short, thoroughly biblical and practical work, Dr. Johnson sets for the case in a manner that is convincing and convicting (in the best sense). His suggestion of the norm of local church membership as Sixth Sola is hard to refute, after reading this work—unless one elevates individualism over discipleship.

This book is a timely call to a Biblical understanding of what it means to belong to the body and bride of Christ, and the blessings that come from gathering physically as God’s people.
Robin Weekes
Minister, Emmanuel Church, Wimbledon, London
This book will not only enhance your growth in grace but will become an instrument as you disciple others in Christ’s Church.
