Discovering Godís wonderful plan for leadership in the church. Strong leadership in the church is exactly what God had in mind. However, very few people, Getzís believes, understand the biblical pattern for church leadership. Gene Getz has written Elders and Leaders to unravel the mystery and alleviate the confusion surrounding this critical topic. In the first part of the book, Getz lays the historical and biblical groundwork for the position of elder. In the second part, he shares how he has applied or has seen these principles applied over the years. Elders and Leaders tackles a culturally sensitive topic with thorough scholarship and practical wisdom. Will appeal to a broad audience of church people sensing the need for direction for their church. A perfect resource for the emerging generation of church leaders as they tackle the complex challenges of a postmodern culture. Getzís book comes with a strong endorsement from Bob Buford and Brad Smith, both part of the influential Leadership Network.
