What’s the best news you’ve ever received? Good news is fun to remember. But it often gets overshadowed. Bad news sells better, so the commercial news outlets are filled with bad news—all the time. Politics is a bad news sport. Recession. Climate change. Trouble in the Middle East. Or Russia. Or South America. Again. And then it gets personal. You took a pay cut. Or worse, your job was cut. Or your company is moving to Texas—or to India—and they are not taking you with them— or they are!

Biblical eldership is too important to the local church to be muddled in confusion and unscriptural church traditions. According to the New Testament, elders jointly pastor the church, teach the word, protect the church from false teachers, exhort and admonish believers in sound doctrine, pray with the sick, and judge doctrinal issues. In biblical terminology, elders shepherd, oversee, lead, manage, and care for the local church. By developing a healthy eldership, we develop a healthy church.
