The Servant-Driven Church: Releasing Every Member for Ministry
Overview
"A new command I give you: Love one another" (John 13:34). With these words Jesus gave us the foundation stone on which we are to build our life in obedience to him. But he did not just come down from heaven, issue this command, and leave; he gave us a lifetime of examples for daily living. Among these examples were clear and pointed teachings about serving each other. This book is a blueprint for preparing and training the church’s leaders, those already committed to service within the church, to establish the framework of organization which will allow every member to find a place of service and pursue it with a whole heart. When leaders have learned to be servants, they have become like the chief shepherd and servant, Jesus Christ. This servant spirit produces a servant-driven church which prospers spiritually and numerically.
