As a sought-after speaker for pastors’ conferences in nations around the world, Myles Sweeny frequently speaks on the blessings that come from establishing a biblical eldership team.
When done correctly, eldership teams help to bring a continual flow of God’s life and power into the local church. This includes the peace and power of unity, the establishing and communicating of the church’s vision, the effective oversight of ministries, the development of future leaders, and the stability and protection of the long range health of the church. Drawn directly from Myle’s teachings for developing elders in the network of Grace Ministries International, this small book is not interested in being a compendium on the topic of elders. Its goal is simply to establish the practical aspects and functioning of eldership within the local church.
