The Healthy Church
A perfect example of a healthy church is seen in Acts 2:41-47. They worshipped, they ministered, they evangelized, they fellowshipped, and they taught each other. A healthy church has all of these elements and as a result the church grows. “And day by day the LORD was adding to their numbers those who were being saved” (Acts2:47)
Healthy churches are balanced churches. They keep these five purposes balanced. Most churches tend to emphasize just one of these purposes. And as a result their church takes a certain shape.
