Episode Synopsis

“I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me.” John 17:21 (NIV)The importance of unity in diversity.  Serving on a church leadership team is not without its struggles. So many different ideas, views and personalities come into play. In this session, we take a closer look at the issue of guarding the unity within eldership teams. In particular, we discuss why unity is worth fighting for, what healthy eldership teams look like, the role of lead elders and how to bring your perspective with humility. We're left with a reminder that it's really about Jesus, seeking His will, His presence, and building on His Word.
