Ten Indictments against the Modern Church
Sign in to keep track of books you’ve read and want to read.
Paul Washer begins from a sober concern: the modern church needs revival, yet God is unlikely to bless efforts that follow personal preference rather than Scripture. This short book names ten areas where congregations have drifted from clear biblical instruction and calls believers to pray for reform. The subjects include the sufficiency of the Bible, a shallow knowledge of God, a weak view of human sinfulness, a distorted understanding of the gospel, and neglected church discipline. It also takes up the nature of the church, the role of the family, and the need for pastors who are themselves well fed on God's Word.
