Not our usual question, but one worth asking: What are the marks of a "good church?" An authentic church can be not so good (read Rev. 2-3). We must seek both authenticity and integrity as the body of Christ.
1. A high view of Scripture. The written Word revealing the living Word must be studied, known, obeyed.
2. Focus. What is our task? Are we doing it?
3. Spiritual development for each member. The garden of the soul must be constantly cultivated. Such is normal, expected.
4. Evangelism. A lost world yet needs the Savior.
