The local church is more than a weekly gathering-it's a family to join, a temple to build, a body to serve, and a bride being made ready for Christ. But in a culture of consumerism, individualism, and spiritual confusion, many Christians are unsure how to find a faithful church-let alone how to commit to one.
In Devoted Together: How to Find and Join a Church, Brandon Langley offers a clear, biblical, and deeply pastoral guide for anyone seeking to understand the beauty and weight of church membership. Whether you're new to the faith, relocating, or rethinking your church involvement, this book will help you ask the right questions, recognize healthy churches, and enter into covenant community with clarity and conviction.
Rooted in the New Testament and written with both warmth and urgency, Devoted Together explores what the church is, why it exists, and how Christians are called to relate to it. Langley draws on years of pastoral ministry and practical experience to walk readers through the process of finding, evaluating, and joining a local church-not just as attendees, but as devoted members of God's household.
