The Pastor’s Goal is to Build Leaders
Leadership Progression
The essential element to growth in any ministry endeavor is the commitment to develop effective leadership. I was given this advice by Pastor Tony Evans of Dallas, TX.
Leaders serve in one year terms beginning in January
Elders/Ministers/Deacons lead the major ministry groups; responsible for implementing strategic direction
Elders/ministers/deacons and ministry leaders are eligible for Leadership Council; responsible for church’s spiritual and strategic guidance along with Pastors
