Assessment

Listed in the 9Marks Church-Search directory. 9Marks publishes the directory as a discoverability tool for Reformed Baptist-leaning, congregationalist, expositional churches that self-identify with the 9 Marks of a Healthy Church (Mark Dever). NOTE: Inclusion is user-submitted via 9marks.org and is NOT individually vetted by 9Marks editorial staff. Treat directory presence as a self-attested signal of alignment with the 9 Marks values; confirm independently before publishing.
