About the Finder
Churches committed to healthy practice.
The 9Marks Church Finder is a directory of churches committed to biblical faithfulness, sound doctrine, and healthy church practices. Its goal is to help people find churches that take seriously the nine marks of a healthy church as described by 9Marks.
The nine marks
What the finder is looking for
These marks include expositional preaching, biblical theology, a biblical understanding of the gospel, conversion, evangelism, church membership, church discipline, discipleship and growth, and biblical church leadership.
Verification tiers
How review is represented
Every church in the directory goes through a review process. As churches provide more information and receive more attestations, they advance through verification tiers.
In addition to basic verification, the church has received attestations from peer churches or elders. Its theology, statement of faith, and practices have been reviewed for alignment with 9Marks principles.
The highest level of verification. The church has been fully verified through multiple attestations, completed a theological questionnaire, and been reviewed by 9Marks staff.
