Bring My Sheep Back!: Church Discipline, the Loving Way

"Bring My Sheep Back" presents a candid framework for the process of restoring Christians that stray. Most of the books that deal with this subject approach it from the standpoint of solving conflicts between Christians. "Bring My Sheep Back" is founded on Jesus’ teaching to put the interests of the straying Christian ahead of our own desire for immediate relief of pain caused by the one caught in sin. Personal observations along with much attention to biblical instruction produce a very useful and thorough resource for church leaders and lay people who desire to restore Christians trapped by sin. This book stresses adherence to biblical principles rather than dependence on man-made approaches to solving relational problems. Much attention is then given to the importance of fulfilling Christ’s command to love one another with humble hearts. The book stresses the importance to guard against gossip and presumption of guilt throughout the process. Whether it involves private sin or public scandal, or even cases that involve the governing authorities, biblical principles are taught as foundational to the process of restoration that aims to fulfill Jesus' desire for His people to love one another.Read more
