One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church: The Biblical Doctrine of the Church

We can better see God’s wise and good plan for the world when we better understand his intentions for the church.

One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church provides a cohesive and comprehensive guide to understanding the nature and purpose of the church. Throughout redemptive history, God has been gathering a people to himself to worship him, to serve one another, and to bring the gospel to the nations.

Waters approaches the doctrine of the church from biblical-theological, historical, and systematic angles. He also addresses practical concerns about the life and ministry of the church today, such as worship, spiritual gifts, and the relationship between church and state.
