“I eagerly commend this series.”

Does the phrase church discipline sound like an oxymoron? Many people believe that the church’s message is centered around grace, and discipline seems contrary to this message. In this booklet, Jonathan Leeman presents biblical answers to questions about the nature and application of church discipline, illustrating how Scripture presents it as loving and necessary for yielding life, health, holiness, and growth in the local church body.
