“Leading a church as a team of elders requires a clear and shared understanding of the church’s direction, but it also requires a clear and shared understanding of what leadership entails. Without that understanding, the elders will often be working at cross-purposes with hidden assumptions about what their role entails and how it should be carried out. Murray Capill’s book shows how elders may lead a church together in a way that is biblically grounded and practical. I wish I’d had this book when I was a pastor.” Karl Deenick, Community and Student Care Coordinator, Lecturer in Theology, Sydney Missionary and Bible College; former Senior Pastor, The Branch, Launceston, Australia
