Discover how every member of the body of Christ is affected and empowered for ministry when elders give healthy oversight to the church. This biblical model communicates the family character of the church as teams of servant-leaders equip, protect and love the local church. Complete with evaluation questionnaires, sabbatical guidelines, sample church by-laws, keys to developing a vision statement, biblical steps to make godly decisions, maintaining a leader’s health, and much more. Team based leadership in the local church is essential for unity, vision, and building a healthy, life-giving church. This book serves this need like no other book available right now. I highly commend it! -Floyd McClung, Senior Pastor, South Africa
