Leadership in the Church

Christ loves the church and gave Himself for it. He also did not leave it alone but poured out His Spirit to empower it and has equipped people to lead the church. These leaders are gifts of Christ. In this lesson, Dr. Ferguson describes the roles of elders and deacons in the church, outlines especially the qualifications of an elder, and explains how both elders and deacons point us to Christ.
