Five Questions for Evaluating Spiritual Growth
In his book Nine Marks of a Healthy Church, Mark Dever shares five questions he asks when he visits with members of his church to help evaluate their spiritual growth (p. 212). We discussed these questions during an adult Sunday School class this morning, and it was a fruitful discussion. So I am posting them here as well.

We just moved to Staten island and visited you church. We enjoyed your sermon on lines. Found out you left their in April?! We sat thru services and some reorganisations meeting and they seemed like they know what they were doing. We were directed to this site and just read that you wanted to go in a different direction? That it could be your fault? That the church was not healthy? They seemed nice, but now we concerned. What happened? We probably go back but maybe we should keep on looking again?
Thanks for your concern. We pray for Bethel regularly and long to see the church healthy and growing in God's grace. I'm sure that if you were to stay, there would be opportunities for you to serve the Lord and help the church grow.
