Instruction for Christian Leaders

In 1 Peter 5 we find a concise summary of the basics of Christian leadership. This is one of those passages that will take a lifetime to live out. If church leaders would implement Peter's advice, their churches would be well led. Here we find key principles of leadership for the church: humility, voluntary service, examples of faith to the church, exercising oversight under the will of God, avoiding sordid gain, resisting evil and the Evil One, following Christ.

May God bless the church with such leaders.
