Church Questions is a series by 9Marks that seeks to provide Christians with sound and accessible biblical teaching by answering common questions about church life. Each booklet offers biblical answers and practical applications with the goal of nurturing healthy church practice and commitment. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat does it look like for women to truly thrive as Christians? In this short booklet, Keri Folmar presents eight essential principles to help women fully engage in the context of the local church, such as prioritizing church membership and involvement, investing in meaningful discipling relationships, and not allowing conflict or bitterness to fester. Women will come away with helpful ideas on how to experience the fullness of God’s grace as they seek out biblical community with other believers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart of a series that helps Christians understand the centrality of the local church in Christian discipleship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourages women with the power of the nurturing grace of their local church gatherings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall booklet ideal for sharing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"accordion-section-header\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEndorsements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-section-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Christians are pressed by very real questions.
