This week we returned to our Prophets of the Kingdom series. It’s time for our church to begin nominating people from within the church to take on the role of elder and join Garden City’s spiritual leadership team. Pastor Dennis walked through a quick biblical theology of eldership starting in Exodus and ending in 1 Peter, and affirmed the inclusion and empowering of women to be elders. We then walked through the process we’ll adhere to as a church community over the coming weeks as we seek to discern together the people who will become Serving Elders.
Here are links to the two full-length sermons we taught several weeks ago outlining a robust biblical theology of eldership and women as co-equal leaders in the church.
