Fellowship pastor Jeremy Norton has recently released two new books. 'The Gospel-First Church' is a hopeful, grounded call back to what matters most.
"Drawing from Scripture, research, and real-life pastoral experience, Jeremy Norton challenges churches to stop chasing trends and start recovering their identity as Christ’s people on mission. This book isn’t about saving institutions or reviving nostalgia. It’s about rediscovering who the Church is, why it exists, and how the Gospel brings lasting renewal when it leads everything we do.
"Written for pastors, elders, ministry leaders, and everyday believers. It's a pastoral journey back to the heart of the church Jesus promised to build."
Barton Priebe, President of Northwest College and Seminary comments on Norton's book, "Meeting Jesus": "Jeremy Norton has written a compelling look at the life-changing encounters with Jesus in John’s Gospel. What I love about this book is how he makes biblical characters like skeptical Nathanael and doubting Thomas feel like people we know today. Norton combines solid biblical insight with a pastor’s heart, and his reflection questions turn reading into real spiritual growth. His writing is both accessible and substantive—perfect for anyone wanting to understand how meeting Jesus can truly transform lives. Whether you’re leading a small group or growing in your own faith, this book will both challenge and encourage you. Highly recommended.” Both are available through Amazon.
