Selected Scriptures

One of the essentials of a strong, healthy, God-honoring church is biblically qualified leadership. The effectiveness of any church is directly related to the godliness/Christlikeness of its leadership team. The New Testament clearly mandates and models that Christ intended His church to be led/governed/ruled by a team of Christ-like under shepherds called elders who are assisted in their work by another team of Christ-like servants called deacons.

Scripture that pertains to Elders and Deacons:

Acts 11:30, 14:20, 15:1-5, 20:17

Elders - Philippians 1:1, 1 Thessalonians 5:12, 1 Timothy 3:1, 1 Timothy 4:13, 5:17, Titus 1:5, Hebrews 13:7, 17, James 5:14, 1 Peter 5:1

Deacons - Acts 6:1-7, 1 Timothy 3:8-18

Thank God for providing LBC a unified leadership team. Ask Him to give the Elders and congregation wisdom and discernment during this process of evaluating and affirming new men for that team.
