Who Will Lead Us?
Some Assembly RequiredSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the concept of leadership in the context of the Christian church. He argues that the terms "elder," "bishop," and "overseer" are interchangeable and do not comprise separate offices within the church. Furthermore, he emphasizes the importance of studying the Word of God for oneself and not being overly reliant on human teachers. Gregg suggests that elders in the church should lead by example and be individuals who live as Christians are supposed to live, rather than being appointed as part of a political or institutional structure.
