Leadership Matters: 10 Lessons for Prospective Elders

Rick L. Cowan

Description


Many of us know that we should be training men for leadership, but it’s sometimes hard to know where to begin.

Leadership Matters is neither innovative nor novel but strives to be thoroughly biblical. This is born from the conviction that we already have everything we need to train church leaders - in the word of God. This material is written to equip pastors and their churches to get busy identifying and training men for eldership while remaining faithful to the Lord’s design for the church.

Features

Following each chapter of Leadership Matters are thought-provoking questions ideal for personal reflection or to assist in vetting candidates for eldership. Included are helpful appendices focusing on an elder’s priorities of preaching and prayer.
