How to Find a Local Church

Dan Phillips offers some good practical advice on how to find a gospel-centered church in your area.

I often recommend people check the TGC Church Directory and the 9Marks Church Search site—both of which Dan mentions in his post. But obviously there aren’t such churches in every locale.

Check out his post and feel free to add your own suggestions.

Let me mention two other related resources, both by Don Whitney:

Charles Spurgeon on Election

"I believe in the doctrine of election, because I am quite certain that if God had not chosen me I should never have chosen Him; and I am sure He chose me before I was born, or else He never would have chosen me afterwards; and He must have elected me for reasons unknown to me, for I never could find any reason in myself why He should have looked upon me with special love." - Charles Spurgeon
