Ebook: Biblical Eldership: An Urgent Call to Restore Biblical Church Leadership

With over 200,000 copies sold, this comprehensive look at the role and function of elders brings all the advantages of shared leadership into focus.

Written for those seeking a clear understanding of the mandate for biblical eldership, this full-length, expository book defines it accurately, practically, and according to Scripture.
