Our Vision Churches that reflect the character of God. Our Mission 9Marks exists to equip church leaders with a biblical vision and practical resources for displaying God’s glory to the nations through healthy churches. Our Concern Church leaders, with good intentions, turn to worldly wisdom for growing their churches. Some update the message to keep it relevant. Others offer worldly riches and long life. And still others treat Christians as customers, making human opinion authoritative for what the church should be. The result? Churches that grow quickly and often look good up front, but end up acting like the world. Worldly wisdom does not produce fruit that lasts. Our Solution 9Marks calls church leaders to turn to the Bible to find wisdom for building healthy churches. The Scriptures are sufficient. Our Work 9Marks creates resources to promote these biblical ideas on the church. We host events to influence pastors and church leaders. And, we help build networks to impact churches for the sake of the gospel. Our Impact Fulfilling the Great Commission through building healthy churches that radiate the gospel of Jesus Christ.
