Overview

As the body of Christ, the church is basically an organism, not an organization. This fact is full of implications for the way the church organizes itself and the way leadership functions in the church. No book on church leadership has become as controversial as this one. Nor is there a book that spells out so clearly the scriptural implications of the present rule of Christ in the church and the calling of church leaders to be, first of all, servants. This is must reading for pastors, elders, church staff members, and students preparing for ministry in the church.

Synopsis

This book clearly spells out the scriptural implications of the present rule of Christ in the church and the calling of church leaders to be, first of all, servants. Diagrams, probe sections and indexes.
