This study addresses the divine aspect of leadership by examining the relationship between God and leadership roles. Ephesians 4:1-16 was analyzed because Paul associates deity- the ascended Christ- with leadership functions. This research found that Christ represents the Trinity in exalted form, giving gifts and authority to the church for the purpose of building maturity and unity. Socio-rhetorical analysis of the text found five components that compromise a model of divine empowerment: CALLING, MEMBERSHIP, PARTICIPATION, AUTHORITY, \u0026amp; MEDIATING ROLES.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jimmy Dale Bayes Ph.
