A right understanding of honor is vital to healthy churches. It’s a word that’s mentioned hundreds of times throughout the Bible. But what does honor really look like for us in everyday church life? Who should we honor, and how?
Adam Ramsey brings a fresh understanding of true honor in our churches. He paints a vision of an honoring church that captivates your mind and heart—a church that shines brightly in the community because of the way its members value and respect each other and their leaders and, above all else, bring honor to God.
There are reflection questions at the end of every chapter and a discussion guide in the back, making this book ideal to read as a small group or even a whole church. The discussion guide is also available to download for free online.
This book is part of the Love Your Church series, a collection of thoughtful and practical books that will inspire every church member with a biblical vision of what it means to be a local community of God’s family. Church members can explore together what it means to belong, to welcome, to gather, to care, to serve and to honour one another, and to witness and send people out to spread the gospel.
To the point. Poignant. We can’t speak to the gravity of need of other points in time, but Adam Ramsey’s thoughts on this topic are badly needed as it regards individual congregations at THIS point in history. Cliche & out of context as it may be: “for such a time as this” as apathy is fully embraced among our flocks & the de-prioritization of church involvement takes root among so many. This is not a “hair on fire” of urgency but a humble finger-pointing to the longer end-game: until our Savior returns we have a continued duty to make the ...body healthy.
(Review written for 'Honour')
We love this series as the books make great gifts for church members and excellent reading ideas for home groups, as we think about what our churches should be like. This is an excellent addition to the series, helping us to see how we should be building one another up rather than pulling each other down. We should build up our leaders, value one another, and bring honour to God through it all. It’s an enjoyable, easy read and includes lots of deep theological truth too. There’s also a small group discussion guide at the back which is particularly useful ...for what we need it for!
How does showing honor to each other honor God? In Honor, Adam Ramsey writes on loving your church by building one another up.
Ramsey does an excellent job of explaining the importance of honoring each other as a motive of love for Jesus. It is also memorable, as Ramsey shows how honor is applied in our head (doctrine), hands (actions), and heart (affections).
I was most moved to read how honor is connected to humility. Self-righteousness and self-condemnation can be eliminated when we are humble. One way to practice humility is to confess our sins to one another – something I want to do more of in my life.
A Reciprocal Relationship
Arriving early and gathering thoughtfully are ways to show honor to each other in the congregation. And a church that honors each other is attractive to outsiders.
Ramsey concludes with the need to honor our leaders but also for the leaders to honor the congregation – a reciprocal relationship that I think we should be seeing more of in the church today.
This book is an excellent read for both church leaders and members. It shows how everyone can contribute to a church where respect and honor thrive. With biblical wisdom, both leaders and members can build a church that genuinely reflects Christ’s love and attracts others.
I received a media copy of Honor and this is my honest review.
