Effective Empowering Elders

About this book

Where will you find trustworthy leaders in your church? How should elders direct the affairs of the church? How will you know if they have fulfilled their responsibilities and are worthy of double honor? Rick Thompson takes an in-depth look at what makes an effective empowering elder. He gleans many helpful insights on leadership practices from some of the best contemporary books written on this subject and weaves those insights into a solid biblical understanding of the important work of elders. He takes what Paul say to Titus (1:7) very seriously: An overseer is entrusted with Gods work ... Gods people in each century and every culture need effective empowering elders. You are invited on a journey to discover what that means in your church and in your life if you have been entrusted with this work of the Kingdom.
