Every church leader knows the qualifications for elders and deacons explained in the Bible, but it can be difficult to find other leaders who meet biblical qualifications. Thabiti Anyabwile writes from his experience as a pastor and elder, showing how to identify and reproduce legitimate leaders and willing servants in all ranks of the local church. Balancing thoughtful analysis of pertinent passages with painstaking application for practical use in a contemporary context, Anyabwile answers the questions: “Whom should we seek to lead and serve in the church?” and “What must they do to fulfill their calling?”
