Publisher's Description: Jesus, in his ministry, received the empty, the broken, the lost and the diseased. Mark Lauterbach shows how compassion, mediated through a functioning body of believers, provides the answers to human waywardness and maintains the integrity of the church.
Although this is a book about church discipline, it is really about a spirit-empowered community. Mark uses real situations from his experience to help us turn principles into practice.

Mark Lauterbach gets it right. Church discipline cannot be divorced from vital, loving community. Pastors and church leaders would do well to use "The Transforming Community" as a handbook for developing a kind of community that disciplines according to the Gospel. |
