Summary
Happy quarantine! On this episode Jimmy and Joe talk through the benefits of belonging to a local church from the 1689 Confession. Where do we see church “membership” in Scripture? What are the “privileges” of membership? What’s a “censure,” and why does a local church practice church discipline?

The ministry landscape is changing. More and more, pastors need to be equipped with rigorous theological training as well as job skills to make a living where God has called you. That’s why Southeastern Seminary has created the M.Div.-M.B.A. in just 4 years, you can graduate from a theologically rigorous M.Div. program at Southeastern and have the practical job skills of an M.B.A. With leading Baptist scholars like Bruce Ashford, Ben Merkle, and John Hammett, there’s no better time to start your theological training today.
