Biblical Leadership in the Church: Scripture, Structure, and Faithful Leadership - 2nd Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798249747091)

This booklet offers a thoughtful, Scripture-centered reflection on eldership, church leadership and discipleship within the Christian tradition. Written from a Wesleyan perspective, it explores the biblical witness regarding elders, overseers, and the structure of authority in the Church, with particular attention to the distinction between what Scripture commands and what it describes.

Rather than arguing polemically for or against a single model of governance, the booklet seeks to show how biblical leadership grows organically out of discipleship, spiritual maturity, and the family life of the Church. Drawing from the New Testament, early church history, and Wesleyan practice, it presents a vision of eldership that is flexible in structure yet rigorous in character-calling the Church to prioritize faithful formation, accountability, and pastoral care over rigid numerical formulas.

Designed for pastors, church leaders, and thoughtful lay readers, this booklet invites careful study, charitable dialogue, and renewed commitment to biblical leadership that serves the unity and mission of Christ's Church.
