Book Description

Open for Discussion Series September 25, 2005
Trying to organize a discussion around the complete text of any full-length book can be unwieldy, and Biblical Eldership is no exception ("So, what did you guys think of chapter seven" Silence...). Now, with the help of this discussion guide, the elders at your church can review the principles of the book and personalize them to your setting in a few manageable sessions.

By capturing the major points and themes of Biblical Eldership in one-page summaries with discussion questions, the Biblical Eldership Discussion Guide will help you bridge the gap between understanding and application. Topics covered include:

--Why church government matters
--The biblical meaning of the term "elder"
--The four primary duties of an elder
--Sharing leadership equally among a group of men
--The biblical basis for male leadership in the church
--The importance of eldership qualifications
--Appointing elders
--The special relationship between elders and the congregation

It’s one thing to read about biblical eldership. It’s another to move from concept to practice. That takes sharp focus, guided discussion, and prayerful planning. The Biblical Eldership Discussion Guide is designed to bring such focus and discussion to your planning process.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rediscover a Forgotten Biblical Principle, September 14, 2010
This review is from: Biblical Eldership Discussion Guide (Open for Discussion Series) (Paperback)
Well written. Easy to understand. Helps modern readers who are prone to look for a "hero" pastor realize that they should be looking for a team of godly men who are working together to lead the church.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extraordinary Read!, January 23, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Biblical Eldership Discussion Guide (Open for Discussion Series) (Paperback)
Great resource for helping pastors transition to the Biblical model of church leadership. Denominations institutionalize the church and we move away from structuring the church after the New Testament church.

5.0 out of 5 stars The premier book on biblical eldership, December 2, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Biblical Eldership Discussion Guide (Open for Discussion Series) (Paperback)
Superb book. Not an easy read, but completely worth the effort. The author has done an excellent job in researching and even includes some of the more "fringe" viewpoints. This book NEEDS to be read by those who believe they want to be an Elder!
