"Deacons
likewise must be dignified, not double-tongued, not addicted to
much wine, not greedy for dishonest gain. They must hold the
mystery of the faith with a clear conscience. And let them also
be tested first; then let them serve as deacons if they prove
themselves blameless. Their wives likewise must be dignified,
not slanderers, but sober-minded, faithful in all things. Let
deacons each be the husband of one wife, managing their children
and their own households well. For those who serve well as
deacons gain a good standing for themselves and also great
confidence in the faith that is in Christ Jesus."
-- 1 Timothy 3:8-13 (ESV)
Leadership in the church the way that Jesus described it was
really servant hood. Our leaders, in accordance with the Bible,
have been appointed from among the more spiritually mature men
of the church. Our servant-leaders are family men with the
experiences of life and wisdom from the Scriptures that make an
effective combination for ministry. We're really proud of our
servant leaders and we'd like you to get to know them better.
