The Pastoral Prime Mandate (Video)

The essential elements of a healthy, effective church are the Great Commandment, the Great Comission, and Discipleship. This is our pastoral mandate.

In almost every church, there is one person who everyone looks to for leadership — the pastor.

But solo leadership was never God’s plan for the church. In Ephesians 4:11-12, the Apostle Paul gave church leaders a better way forward, using a shared leadership principle that, in turn, creates even more mature leaders through the wonder of discipleship.

I call this passage the Pastoral Prime Mandate.

This is another segment from my full-length seminar talks that we’re releasing every two weeks. This video is from the full-length talk, How To Discover And Use What Your Church Does Well.
