Thom S. Rainer, autor de exitos editoriales y lider ministerial, motivo una excepcional respuesta cuando publico en su blog diario una declaracion de 500 palabras sobre la experiencia de pertenecer a una iglesia.La publicacion titulada Soy miembro de la iglesia inicio un intercambio sobre las actitudes y responsabilidades de los miembros (en lugar de las cuestiones funcionales y teologicas) que habian pasado por alto los libros anteriores destinados a la iniciacion de miembros en las iglesias. Soy miembro de la iglesia, una ponencia ampliada elaboradamente en formato de libro, comienza a reparar la ola de miembros inactivos o insuficientemente comprometidos con sus iglesias, abordando sin excusas lo que se espera de aquellos que se suman a un cuerpo de creyentes. Cuando la actitud de una persona es constantemente biblica y saludable, los detalles relacionados con dar, servir, etc., comienzan a encontrar su lugar naturalmente. Presenta seis capitulos enfocados con preguntas de estudio para guiar esta creciente conversacion: 1. Sere un miembro de la iglesia comprometido con la unidad2. No dejare que mis preferencias y deseos controlen mi relacion con la iglesia3. Orare por los lideres de mi iglesia4. Guiare a mis familiares a integrarse de una manera sana como miembros de la iglesia5. Sere un miembro util de la iglesia6. Apreciare como un tesoro la experiencia de pertenecer a la iglesia Best-selling author and ministry leader Thom S. Rainer drew an exceptional response when he posted a 500-word declaration about church membership to his daily blog. I Am a Church Member started a conversation about the attitudes and responsibilities of church members -- rather than the functional and theological issues -- that previous new member primers all but ignored. Thoughtfully expanded to book form, I Am a Church Member begins to remedy the outbreak of inactive or barely committed church members, addressing without apology what is expected of those who join a body of believers. When a persons attitude is consistently biblical and healthy, matters of giving, serving, and so forth will fall into place more naturally. Six intentional chapters with study questions guide this rising discussion: 1. I Will Be a Unifying Church Member 2. I Will Not Let the Church Be About My Preferences and Desires 3. I Will Pray for My Church Leaders 4. I Will Lead My Family to Be Healthy Church Members 5. I Will Be a Functioning Member 6. I Will Treasure Church Membership as a Gift Review Thom Rainer has written more in behalf of the local church than any scholar I know. I Am A Church Member is a stellar example of such monographs, the perfect introduction for anyone serious about pleasing Jesus through responsible church membership. Fun, perceptive, challenging, and steeped in Scripture, I sincerely wish that every evangelical churchman would read-- and then practice this book. Paige PattersonPresident, Southwestern Seminary, Fort Worth, Texas I am a Church Member is a great resource for both church leaders and church members. In a world obsessed with consumerism Dr. Rainer shows that, as a biblical church member, I am called to a greater commitment. I recommend that any church that takes belonging seriously consider giving a copy to every member. Geoff SurrattManaging Director, Exponential As a church member I have the privilege to unite with the body of Christ in making an eternal difference through my giftedness in His service. Church membership is an honor, privilege, and joy. Where would I be without the fellowship, encouragement, and edifying of the church? I am so thankful to Thom Rainer for making that reality come alive in this book! Johnny HuntPastor, First Baptist Church of Woodstock, Georgia So much ink has been spilled to critique the church that it has almost become sport. Yet, I am confined that you cannot love Jesus and despise His wife, the Bride of Christ. Here, Thom Rainer offers a positive
